The Cisco VPN client we use has an option to remain active, even if the user logs off. It will actually come up as part of the logon process so the user can authenticate against the VPN server, then logon via the domain. Log off and the VPN client is still running in the background and the machine can be administered remotely.

I may be going about this the wrong way but currently my company has many.
laptops out all over the country that connect to the internet through various
ISPs, most of which use NAT. I need to be able to manage these machines and
my prefered way to do this is to have these machines create a VPN connection
to the server in our central office (it has a static IP) and then to use
Remote Desktop to do what ever I need to do on the remote PC. The problem
here is that as soon as I login to the remote PC it logs the current user on
that PC out, which causes the VPN connection to die.
How do I get around this? Is there any way to keep the VPN connection open?
Thanks,
Wells
