Remote Desktop and Audio Out?

J

James

Hello There, wonder if anyone can help with this one...

I am accessing a windows XP system via remote desktop. I want to be able to
allow audio to be output from the sound card installed in the remote system.
But when I log onto the remote system and launch a music player etc, the
audio is played back on the local pc. I want to be able to get the audio to
play from the cardcard/speakers of the remote computer, not my local one.
Anyone know if this can be done with a tweak or two? Strange reuest I know,
but thats how I need it to be for this specific setup.

Thanks
James

On your client machine when you lauch the remote desktop program (before you
hit connect), take a look at the options. One of them contains the option of
what to do with the sound. Very straight forward.
