Losing Text Control on Secondary

May 29, 2008 12:29 PM from

My primary is Windows Vista 64 Business, with 2 monitors. My secondary is Windows XP Pro. Both running a licensed Multiplicity 1.21 Pro (017 build?). Everything works great for a while, but for some reason, at random times, I lose the ability to key in text on the secondary. Cursor controls still work, but keyed text shows up on the right monitor of the primary.

If I unload and reload Multiplicity on the primary, text control is restored, but again, only for a while. Any ideas?

I am connected from primary to secondary via a 1 GB local area network. The secondary is signed into a domain account, the primary is not logged into the domain. Both machines can resolve each other's host name via the DNS, but my Multiplicity setup does use actual IP addresses.
