Remote Desktop Connection issue

Hi Everyone,

I am connecting to a terminal server using bulit-in remote desktop.
I would like to connect some of my local drivers to the remote computer.
Checked the check-box in the reomte desktop settings to connect my local drives.
I saw my local drive letters in the remote computer's folder. Did a right click on them and sent as shortcut to desktop. The shortcuts are working until the remote session is over. Next day when I reconnect to TS the shortcuts are seems to be broken.

How can I / how should I add shortcuts to my Terminal Server session's desktop that remain connected to the local drives after I disconnect and reconnect?

I heard that there are some alternative clients that can do the same thing as windows built-in remote desktop client and they are freeware. I will need an alternative solution to perform a remote desktop and a VPN connection at the same time if possible.
Is there a way / or client to do that?

Thanks

Thanks guys that is working good.

What do you think about the secound question?

I will need an alternative solution to perform a remote desktop and a VPN connection at the same time if possible.
(the reason why I need vpn because I will install a warehouse manager app. on the Terminal Server and it will use the VPN to look back to update its database files.)

What do you think?
