Re: Re: Remote Desktop & Consoles ...

Thanks Chris, my understanding is that XP Pro can only support one
user and
they are always logged into the onsole, whereas Win Server 2003 can support
multiple logged in (remote) users so there is then the choice on which is
on
the console.

I guess I should also investigate that the audio/printer etc sharing is
getting turned off correctly.

Cheers

David
