Hi Jeff

The setting you're going to want to use is:

Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components ->
Terminal Services -> Allow users to connect remotely using Terminal
Services.

Unfortunately I was looking at a Windows XP SP2 RC machine. This setting
doesn't exist in Windows XP SP1 and earlier. It does map to the following
registry value however:

HKEY\LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\

fDenyTSConnections

If this is set to 0, Remote Connections are allowed.

Kind regards
