[nfbcs] Remote desktop

[Ryan Stevens]

Hi, Tracy,

After the first time you log into the remote site, you're usually placed in
the password box by default.  The one issue is whether you have a page with
an OK button that appears before the login page.  I need to remote to
several servers, some with an initial page, some with just the login page.
Either way, You need to get in touch with the maker of your screen reader to
find out whether there's a setting to start its remote version at the login
rather than after.  I hope this helps.

I'm trying to connect via Remote Desktop.  From the point where it says
"input screen" or whatever, just after I choose the address I want to
remote to, it stops talking until after I've entered my ID and password on
the remote PC.  Something is going wrong before that.  It's not talking,
and my Optacon is currently dead.  Is there any way to figure out what's
wrong, leaving aside the mythical sighted person I keep in my basement for
these kinds of problems?

Is the order of things:
Enter on PC ID I want
After it says "input screen" and stops talking, enter again.
Put in my user ID and password and enter again.  Wait hopefully for some
speech.

Thanks for any advice.
Tracy
