Numlock Bothers

Posted: 07-28-2003, 04:31 AM
Using a laptop with RD enabled, and everything is hunky-
dorey. But after I log out and go home and try to access
the machine physically, it prompts me with a password
screen. I don't mind that, it's a security thing. But
what I do mind is that numlock is turned on by default -
a bit irratiting on a laptop keyboard, in which a number
pad is canabalized out of a few regular keys. Any ideas
on how to turn this off? Could it be the client computer
sending the numlock on signal? Thanks.

Yes... Your laptop retained the remote settings... I don't know of
an easy way to "not" set this, unfortunately...
