Re: Application Sharing greyed out with RDC

Greetings David,

I believe this is by design due to the way Application Sharing captures the screen. Even if
you start Netmeeting manually (which is where this component comes from), it grays it out
there too.

We're on a large university campus and use Windows Messenger 5.1 and Remote
Desktop Connection extensively, especially with a telecommuting colleague.
But I've found that although application sharing works when I'm sitting at my
office PC, the "Start Application Sharing..." menu item is greyed out if I'm
interacting with it remotely over RDC. Some articles have suggested mods to
the group security policy but we haven't found one that works. Also, Google
and Google groups don't seem to have any help. Any help will be MUCH
appreciated.
