I have a Windows 2003 Server which has a number or RAS Connections to some of our customers. Occasionally the connections go into a mode where there are connected, but not working. Disconnecting and reconnecting solves the problem. However sometimes you can not disconnect as I get the following error message
It is not possible to disconnect at this time. The connection is currently busy with a connect or disconnect operation.
There are no visible connection dialog boxes when this message occurs and I usually end up having to restart the server which obviously affects all the other users.
I know that if you have a service that is stuck 'stopping' you can just kill it. Is there anything similar that you can do to reset a ras connection?
