Clipboard Stops Working over RDP?

Clipboard Stops Working over RDP?

On our Windows Server 2003 we host a MS-Access application (*.mdb), the
users today were complaining that when they copied anything to the
clipboard either to or from the RDP window, the clipboard was not being
transferred. Most of our users are using Windows 7 64-bit.
I tried the usual killing of the rdpclip.exe process and restarting it,
but this didn't fix the problem. The issue occurred when I logged into the
system via RDP myself on my local machine.
I gave up and decided to restart the server. But as I kicked the users off
I logged back in and tried it again, the problem seems to have gone away.
Is there anything other than rdpclip that could prevent people's
clipboards from being used?
