I'm having a small problem with remote desktop. I have 2 xp-pro
computers, I'm trying to connect to one using remote desktop, (RD).
I've made the firewall changes on both machines to allow RD to work.
When I try to connect to the remote machine I get the background from
the target computer and then a login screen. I login using an admin
account on the target machine. I see the remote connection loading
prefs and then I see a logging off popup window and then the connection
drops. I've only been able to get it to work when I have the admin
account i'm using logged in on the target machine. I'm baffled as to
why it's working like that. I'd appreciate any help

Thanks,
Bill
