NO! Terminal Services is know as Remote Desktop and there is only one

Remote Desktop "client" which will close the monitor (console) XP

session.

Sorry to re-open this, but do you mean a TRUE Windows Server Terminal

Server or just more than 1 person logged in via console or remote

desktop? If the latter, go here: http://www.kood.org/terminal-server-patch/

I have personally used this and it works great.

No, a true terminal server is not necessary. What I have a need for

is an ability for our UNIX users to access the PC from their

workstations. With Server 2003, up to 5 of them could log onto the PC

and run the applications there with the display being sent back to a

window on their workstations. Unfortunately, the critical software I

need the PC for no longer runs under anything but XP and Vista. Will

this software you mention allow me to regain that remote capability?

 

Thanks
