Remote Desktop Connection: Multiple users, mutiple sessions with the same user, etc

[riahc3]

Hello,

We made a overclocked PC and now would like to have multiple users connect to it. Ive found a patch that could do it (Windows 7 Professional) but it seems to have the limitation that if (domain wise) Im logged into PC one with user "Domain\Bob" and I try to login to the overclocked one called "Domain\Bob" it kicks me off.

Is there any way to bypass this? Thank you

That is not a "legal" way of allowing more than 1 account into desktop OS.

There is no "legal" way of having more than 1 active session using windows desktop resources like you can with a terminal server, or windows server has 2 admin sessions that can be logged in, etc.

If you need more than 1 person to remote desktop to a machine at the same time, then you need to run server OS. If more than 2 then you need to be licensed for terminal server services.

Sorry about that BudMan and thank you for clearing it up.

Mods, close the thread and I apoligize. I didnt know the patch was illegal, thought it was a Microsoft limitation. Reporting my own thread now...
