The nice thing about running BWS on a VM is that you don't not need to keep an active connection. You do how ever need to keep the VM virtually logged on. If, when you close your connection to the VM system, you also lock the session, BWS will fail to run. Remember, BWS emulates active use, if you are physically unable to enter data because of a screen saver or a locked session, so is BWS.
We have a few vm's running (via Citrix) scripts and use an access list that dictates who does and who does not have access to the server. When you activate the connection, the logon is already active, and has been since the last reboot.

Has anyone successfully done this? Do you have to stay logged in to the server? Multiple people share the duties of babysitting the scripts, so this could be an issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
