Re: We have been playing around with the new RDP cookie feature in 1.4-dev4 and it works really well...

Guillaume,

I think you would need to increase the clitimeout and srvtimeout to 2 hours if you wanted it to be seemless.
Otherwise you would need to reconnect with the same username to join the same session if those timeouts had expired.

Its not like HTTP cookies that are remember on the client (the login id is only sent when establishing a connection)

Nick can you run this specific test tomorrow, please?
