A. Persistent connections are those which are recreated after youlogoff and logon again. It may be desirable to stop this and so a registry entryexists to disable users from creating persistent connections:
Start the registry editor (regedt32.exe)
Move to HKEY_USERS.DEFAULTSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionNetworkPersistent Connections
Double click on SaveConnections
Change to 'no' (don't type the quotes). Click OK
Close the registry editor
The above would disable for new users. To disable for current users performthe same but on the HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionNetworkPersistent ConnectionsSaveConnectionsvalue.
