I am experiencing an issue now where some of our users require to use VNC to remote into a server to run certain applications. The issue is that after the Windows Server 2003 is rebooted for some reason the VNC service will not involuntarily start unless I manually login as an admin into the server via remote desktop or in person. Is it possible to write a speech that would run after a reboot and involuntarily start the VNC service? If so, can anyone give me some pointers as I have no experience in writing scripts.

Thanks

Check the vnc service in the services window, and make sure it is set to automatic, log on is set to autostart and service is local system account and allowed to interact with the desktop. I have this set on 6 servers, and the service autostarts without a problem on reboot. Getting scripts to run after restart without logon are usually chancy at best, but you may possibly place something in the scheduled tasks that runs at system startup if the above fails.
