[WDSCI-L] RDi Locking Windows Account

For the last several months, my Windows account gets locked out. It
can happen while I'm logged in and working, or when my PC is locked
and I'm away from my desk.

My network people are insisting that it has to be RDi. If I do not
launch RDi, I don't get locked out.

Can anyone please tell me what is doing this ?

TIA,
CyndiB.

Buck mentioned a couple points. Here are a few more things you could
check:

(Assuming your IBM i User-ID & password are the same as Windows--otherwise
you wouldn't be able to establish a connection.)

- Where is your workspace? i.e., Is it on a Windows Network location?
(This isn't recommended--at least it used to not be.)

- Under Preferences: "Remote Systems", "IBM i", and "Cache".

- Is "Automatic Updates" turned on? Also under Preferences:
"Install/Update", and "Automatic Updates" If anything is enabled there,
check under "Available Software Sites" for a network location.
