May I allow tow users to access a machine with Windows XP Pro at the same
time, in separated sessions?
I need to give some access to help people, but I can't stop the user
working, at the remote support does.

Go to Help and Support and look up: Fast User Switching

Fast User Switching
[[Fast User Switching, a feature of Windows XP Home Edition and Windows XP
Professional when it is not joined to a domain, makes it possible for you to
quickly switch between users without actually logging off from the computer.
Multiple users can share a computer and use it simultaneously, switching
back and forth without closing the programs they are running.

For example, suppose you are working on the household budget and you have to
leave the computer for a short time. Your child expresses a desire to play a
game while you are away. With Fast User Switching, you can leave your
financial program running and let your child log on to play the game. When
you log back on, you return to the budget without losing your place.]]
 
I think he's asking for terminal server functionality. So the helpdesk can
connect via RDP yet the user continues working while the help desk does
their thing in another session.
