Thanks Jacek Kolonko for this tip from the MS winXP sp2 betanewsgroup
As posted here,(
http://bink.nu/DesktopModules/ArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=853) XP sp2 will
support conncurrent use of XP remote and via console. (before only 1 windows
session was possible on XP; via console OR remote desktop)
If you run XP sp2 beta 1, you can enable it now, the setting taken from
win2k3 enables it for winXP sp2! Even Microsoft isn't aware of it. :P
Limit though is you need to be logged on as different user.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server\Licensing Core
Create a new DWORD entry "EnableConcurrentSessions" and assign a value of 1
to it. Concurrent Sessions is now enabled. No need to reboot !
MS response in sp2 beta newsgroup:
I am curious about your report that the Registry Key you mentioned is
allowing you to log on with multiple users concurrently. This registry key
should do nothing.
Could you please confirm that you are able to have two users logged on to
your XP SP2 box at the same time? And further what changes you made to make
this possible? :)
