RDP is remembering the credentials OK, because you can connect to the box OK. It's the server itself that is then asking for the Administrator password again. It's Windows Server 2016. Maybe there was a Windows Server update rolled out. I checked the group policy on the server, and that has disabled the need to enter a password when you remote in.


But then again, when I log in with the other tool, it doesn't ask for an additional password, so maybe Win 10 updated the RDP client and broke it.

Nope. I'm still using 7.

Remote Desktop Connection Manager can't open .rdp files so I haven't used that yet.

If it's RDP then don't try to implement it.  It's only describing what to do with web (or rather apache) based access.

Rooshooter has donated the funds to keep the server running another 12 months,  thanks very much :)

Does anyone know/remember how I make a payment to continue the server for another 12 months,
is it under reserved instances - purchase more like these,  I just want to keep the server I have so I don't have to change anything,  just pay for it for another 12 months,  any advice is greatly appreciated,   

cheers

Reserved instances work very simply; you purchase them, and they apply to any running instance.  Just make sure details match; i.e. server type ( eg t2.small ) and region (asia-pacific/sydney) - and of course you'll want to buy either the 12 or 36 mo full upfront.    (best savings is the 36mo non-changeable)

If you guys are short on the 36mo full upfront, tell me how much is missing and where to put the money, I can front it, no probs.

Thanks Bird,  I don't expect you to pay, I would of paid any difference if I realised, it increases the price from 150 odd to 286, which is an awesome saving but I have already paid for the 12months  :-\

In about 12 months the server will need renewing.   I currently pay between $5 and $8 a month on top of the upfront costs and probably will not continue doing that after it runs out.
If anyone wants to start their own server and copy all the stuff we have on the server over go for it. There is heaps of time,  just a heads up.
I am just not playing enough anymore to keep paying for something I dont use,  but will keep paying the monthly costs for now
My life has just go to busy to play as I would like to unfortunately

Cheeers all :D

I was hoping this day would never come :'(. A huge thankyou for stepping in when Flattop went to his big simrig in the sky: and keeping Flattop Thursdays going :). It was a lot of fun racing with you Phil and I have many fond memories of your alien driving skills :o 8).

regards,
Denis.
