If you use RDP you need to connect to the console session and not all versions can do this.

If you suggest NOT running VNC on the servers hosting SA, what do you suggest using as a remote access client? For example, I am in Arizona and my SA server (standard version 6.2.2279 running on Win2k3SP2) is located in New York. Many thanks, Paul- Paul A.

Are you running VNC on the SA server? (Suggest you don't as it has a dramatic effect on performance.) Is your SA GUI set to update the interface during the check cycle in Setup - General - Interface Settings? (Again, strongly suggest you don't as this will *hugely* impact speed - turning this off took our check cycle down from about 8 mins to about 1.)

Could an option be added to recreate the page if a check on it changes? Our check cycle takes 10 mins or so and we have a custom web page showing what it up and down. That page can therefore be 10 mins out of date.
