Hi all,

I would like to set up Window Server 2003 to basically act like Windows XP.

When I connect to the server via remote desktop it creates a new session on
the server, now if I go to a different machine and connect again instead of
disconnecting the other remote user and logging into that session it creates
an entirely new session.

I would rather it handle remote connections the same way XP does.

Please help!
Dav


For Windows Server 2003, set the Restrict each user to one session option to Yes in Terminal Services Configuration. Alternatively, set the Restrict Terminal Services users to a single remote session group policy to Enabled.
