Hi Dag, 

We are trying it both with a new Neoware thin client with a dedicated dual
monitor video vard and on a couple of different PC's, all with XP. One is a
laptop with the internal screen and an external VGA, the other is a dual
monitor PC, but I don't know what kind of card arrangement since I didn't do
that test.

Have you ever gotten this to work in any of dual monitor scenario?

Steve,

With what client are you launching the RDP sessions?  Also, are there any
specific requirements to have the sessions launch in full screen mode?  Last
question, is the client equipped with two video cards with a monitor
attached to each, or one video card with two monitors attached?

Last time I tried that I didn't get it to work Steve. Don't know of any
hacks but I think you might be in a pinch. Let me shoot a couple of e-mails
to the guys at MS and see if they have anything.

Hi All, 

I have a client that is trying to make a multiple monitor environment work
for all employess in the law firm. We can setup a dual monitor embedded XP
or PC and get a single ICA session to span both monitors (very cool) except
they don't currently use Metaframe!

However, we cannot get this to work with RDP on WIN2K3. Does anyone have any
insight into if this is possible? Certain vendors we have worked with say
no, I have a feeling someone on this list knows a hack :)

Thanks
