Re: audio issues with Windows 2003 Remote Desktop?

To connect to the console, use the /console command line switch. For example:

mstsc /console

-TP

I switched that machine out with a Windows 2003 Server box. I enabled
Remote Desktop through the System control panel. The problem I'm
having is that when I login via the Remote Desktop client it creates
a new session rather than taking control of the existing console
session, and this new session it creates doesn't seem to have audio
functionality so the application doesn't work correctly.

If I go into audio devices, I only see a RDP audio driver rather than
the sound cards installed on that PC. In the Remote Desktop client,
I have "Leave At Remote Computer" selected under the sound setting.

Is there any way to change this so it behaves more like my XP box, or
should I just control the box via different means (VNC or pcAnywhere,
etc...)???

Thanks!!
