Using XP embedded

A couple of questions. We are upgrading our thin clients from HP T5000 using
Windows CE to HP T7530 using Windows XP Embedded. When I am logged on (even
as administrator) and create and save a new RDP connection, if I ever reboot
the client, all settings are gone. Is there a security setting that ships
with the clients that I need to configure?

My other question is, I can have our regular .exe files run through the RDP,
however a new one that was just published to our App Server, I get the error
message "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on
this computer." Might anyone be able to help me here?

Thanks for the information.
 
Re: Using XP embedded

You have to login as the local admin of the station and make your changes.
Then in the bottom right you should see a little green icon if you right
click on this there should be the option to commit or disable. Click on
commit and then ti will request you reboot. Once it reboots the changes will
save. If it continues to give you issues download the lastest iamge for the
think client and load the newest updates.

RE: Using XP embedded

Thanks for the response. I did find the answer. I guess the tin clients are
shipped with security locked down (understandably) and there is a setting in
the Control Panel that needed disabled. I have not yet checked to see if the
program can run, but I am able to save the rdp settings now.

Re: Using XP embedded

On the HP Thin Desktops I have had to do one other setup in the system tray
there is a security part that I have had to disable and then commit the
changes for programs to be allowed to run. One thing I ahve done is get one
like I want it and then use the image creation tool and generate a image so
I can roll it out to others as I bring them in.
