It's another hack. Again, a EULA violation. :-)

Susan that's interesting about Vista-do you have any references to
official MS documentation that discusses it? Or is it another type of
hack?

Hi Larry,
Thanks for the suggestion, but although we have another server running
W2003, we do not have the TS licensing. And while this may sound like a
good "solution" to the problem, in our case I'm not sure it would be
worth the price. The workstations were not bought for the purpose of
RWW - they were purchased some time back, prior to our move from NT to
SBS 2003 in order for users from the office to be able to jump on a
vacant machine to check email or whatever when they are at the shop
location (and vice versa). Therefore, the purchase of TS licensing is
simply an additional cost, not a trade-off.
Perhaps upgrading to Vista is the way to go, as from what 'I've read,
Vista will allow multiple sessions... Something to think about...

Well, actually we have 27 XP Pro workstations, these 2 are
unassigned,
Exactly my point... had you opted for 1 Terminal Server, instead of 2
XP Pro Unassigned Workstations you would not be having this problem.
As you already know, RWW to desktops is a one to one relationship.
RWW to a TS is a many to one relationship. For the price of a copy of
Server 2003, and using one of your XP Pro workstations if they are
relatively beefy, and (probably) more RAM, plus $90 or so per user
for the TS license, you can have as many folks logged on at a time as
you wish.
Even now , if you were to turn one of the workstation into a TS, you
could leave the other one as a dedicated one for the one or two users
you can acutally train to log off, and put the rest on the TS, where
is does not matter if they do or don't.
