Connect To Console Session Using Remote Desktop
Jul 20, 2004
I would like to be able to connect to the existing open session in the console instead of loging in again.I use win2003 server at work, and XP at home. Normally I don't log off when I leave work since I like to come back in the morning and continue where I was. If while Im at home, want to add something to my work and use the remote desktop connection, I always need to log in and a new session is created, then I start with an empty desktop and have to get the applications up before I can continue working. It would be much nicer to connect to the existing session as I left at the office.Does anyone know what I need to set up/enable?

I have 3 PC's. I would like to connect to PC1 remotely from PC2 and 3, but there is a problem that I can't figure out. If PC2 is connected (to PC1) and I try to connect with PC3, I will kick off PC2 and connect. I don't wont this. How can I check if there is an active session on PC1 so that anyone who tries to connect first can see that there is another user connected?

I have a XP Pro kiosk which displays information via the SVGA port to the kiosk monitor. Since this computer is in a locked closet, it would be desireable to remotely configure the contents of the screen (power point) from a remote computer. There are several people who require access to this system although not at the same time.
I have tried to configure MS Remote Desktop such that it doesn't create a new session (XP only allows one session whereas Server 2003 allows multiple), but rather displays in the remote desktop client EXACTLY what is being displayed on the kiosk monitor. Unfortunately, all attempts to configure the system to display the console (i.e. mstsc.exe /v:computer_name /console) cause the actual console to revert to an XP login screen rendering the kiosk unusable unless someone then unlocks the closet, logs in directly from the actual console and restarts the power point presentation.

In Windows Vista SP1 and XP SP3 the remote desktop client has been updated to version 6.1. In this new version running mstsc /console to get to the console session no longer works. With RDP 6.1 you need to use the new /admin flag.

I am experiencing difficulty in making a remote desktop connection over a VPN. I can connect with RD over our local network though. When I connect to the VPN, I can ping the computer that I want to RD to, and I can even see it in explorer, I just can't connect via remote desktop. I thought it might be a firewall problem, but Windows firewall is allowing that exception.

Your Windows XP and Windows 2000 clients receive 'The remote session was disconnected because the local computer client access license could not be upgraded or renewed' when they attempt to connect to Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services

I need to access the Remote Console provided with the XP install disk, and I have a few questions about it. I am running Windows XP Home with SP2 and have recently been having problems with a vundo trojan. As far as I can understand, to get rid of the remaining files I need to install the RC from the Windows XP install disk. However, I purchased my notebook from Dell and it came with a CD entitled "Reinstall CD - Microsoft Windows XP Home Editiont - Including Service Pack 1a".I'm wondering if I can use that CD to install the RC. And I've read that the RC doesnt work with SP2, so should i Add/Remove SP2 before installing this?

The title says it all! Basically I have a comp running XP pro and I want to be able to work locally on one user account, with some kind of remote access server running on another XP user account so that the remote account and the local account can be used simultaniously. I know that this cannot be done with XP Pro remote desktop and could be by Windows Server 2003 remote desktop, but i need an alternate solution to make this happen.

I'm looking in using either using Remote Assitance and/or Desktop in a help desk support environment. For example, if a user calls in asking for assistance with a application, or if we are in need of troubleshooting the machine, we would like to initate a remote assistance request that takes the end user out of the equation so we don't need to walk them through how to send a email/file request.

I have two different computers both running Windows XP professional. I am trying to connect to one remotely using the Remote Desktop Connection. I have enabled the remote computer for remote logins but for some reason I cannot connect with it. I get the error message that the client could not connect to the remote session. I have 50 other computers on this network all set up the same way and have never had a problem. Everything seems to be configured exactly the same. I can ping the remote computer.

Here is my problem. I am logged in to a machine via remote desktop and another user with admin rights logs in via remote desktop and logs me off because they assumed that I had forgotten to log off or whatever else. Is there any permission setting either in group policy or elsewhere that would prevent a user attempting to connect via remote desktop from logging off an already logged on user? The problem is that both users are and need to be Admins.

My question concerns Remote Assistance (RA) vs. Remote Desktop (RD) to XP Pro desktops. Providing tech support, I am trying to see if anyone knows how to setup RD session I initiate to a Windows XP Pro OS to "share" sessions with the end user, other than via RA.

I have a strange issue in that I cannot connect to remote port 25 from windows xp workstations. Some workstations are ok, and this works, some are not. All these workstations are in a windows 2003 domain and all are xp sp2. I've seen this before but not found a solution. All the workstations here have their firewalls enabled with the same configuration via GPO. So all I can think of is that microsoft's crippled tcp/ip stack is responsible for this in some lame attempt to reduce spam or something, but we need this as it stops some legitimate processes from running (for example command line utils and python programs that need to send notification emails.

We run a terminal server at my my workplace which runs Windows Server 2003 rc2.We use Remote Desktop The list of OS's is as follows Winxp pro, Winxp home Windows 2000, and some Windows Nt(Yeah i know its depressing). The problem im having is in most cases i can not print from a local machine while in remote desktop unless the printer is on an LPT prtiner port.I have the printer shared on every Local machine, Rdp is setup coreectly also but still no printy. The only thing i have not tried is installing the driver on the TS and then trying to install and bring over the printer while in RDP.

I'm not sure if I'm putting this in the right forum. Here is what I need help on if it can be done. After using remote desktop you either click logoff or disconnect. When you select logoff the xp client I believe is at the Ctrl, Alt, Del screen. If you select disconnect I believe it's at the screen that says your computer is locked press Ctrl, Alt, Del to unlock. Is there a way maybe using a group policy to actually just release the desktop so it's not locked or logged off?

to run the office Sage accounts remotely from home. The "Server" will be an XP Pro box running only the Sage accounts application which is also accessible direclty from the LAN (this is a basic small office peer to peer workgroup). We have a broadband connection to the Internet from the LAN and intend insstalling an XP Pro PC and broadband at the book keepers home.
Remote Desktop seems to cater for this, however I would appreciate knowing the easiest way of setting it up.Having set up numerous SBS's using RWW, which requires Certificate
Authentication from SBS, how do we achieve similar ease of connectivity using
just 2 PC's?

We've got several user accounts setup on XP Pro with Fast User Switching enabled. Is it possible for me to login to the computer via Remote Desktop while someone else is logged in locally, or vice versa? I don't see why it forces them to logout with Fast User Switching enabled.since programs run in the background anyways.

A long time ago I started looking into this because my mum has a PC with XP Home on and I am running XP Pro (both fully up to date), however I seem to recall reading that you couldn't remote into a XP Home machine, only into a XP Pro machine, is this correct? Ideally I would like to try and sort this out so I can sort out any problems with my mums PC if/when they arise without having to try and talk her through it on the phone which can be quite difficult at times.

I've just installed a netgear DG834B asdl/router. I have a desktop and laptop connected wirelessly. I was wondering how and if I can use the remote desktop, or do they both have to be on a proper network. They are connected to the router but not to each other.

I am needing to work from home and want to use remote desktop to access my work computer. We are thinking about getting a new laptop which probably would come with XP Home. Do I need XP Professional on my home computer since that is what we have at work? What is the difference between Home and Professional? Also, it seems most of these computers come with Microsoft WORKS and I need the office suite. HOw compatible are Works documents? I have Works on my desktop at home now and when I try to open documents at work I am not able to. And finally, can I buy XP upgrade to upgrade from Windows ME on my current home desktop?

I have 4 computers in my LAN, they share the same workgroup. I am having a problem with a Windows XP Professional SP2 machine. I enabled remote desktop and i cannot connect to it from another computer.When i try to connect from another computer, i first type in the IP or NetBios name of the computer in question. I get a prompt to enter credentials (username and password). Next i get a prompt because the computer i am trying to connect from is Windows Vista (i tried from another XP computer and it didn't work there eihter), which basically says that it can't verify the identity of the computer and i click yes to continue. After that, the prompt disappears and the Computer input box and the Connect, Help and Options >> buttons in the remote desktop client are greyed out for about 2 seconds, then it just becomes editableclickable and it doesn't connect, neither does it give any error message. I just can't connect to the remote machine. From the problematic machine i can connect to other machines in my network via remote desktop and it works fine.
