Of course, that applies to machines you're connecting to is Windows XP and

possibly Vista or 2003.

It's Ctrl+Alt+End.

hey all,

 

thanks for all the tips, they helped. By the way, i thought you could lock

the windows 2003 server on one client pc and open the same session on another

client pc?

AFAIR, you can take over a dormant session via the

Terminal Services Manager.

Use ctrl-alt-end instead.

 

Or, (if you are using the classic view) on the remote machine under Start

Menu/Settings, there should be an item named "Windows Security" that gives

you the same thing as ctrl-alt-del (if not using fast user switching).

 

Note that the remote machine should already be displaying the locked

computer screen while you are using RD. Unless it is Windows Server, which

can have multiple RD sessions - unless you purposely connect to the console

session, these display nothing on the remote computer's screen.

 

You can just disconnect without logging out from the remote session, which

will leave the remote machine in the locked state. On the start menu,

"Shut Down" should be replaced by "Disconnect".
