Hi,

I've done this before, but can't recall how. I'm trying to list who is
connected via remote desktop to a machine. The interface I recall gave
me the ability to send those people messages and force them off.

Thanks,

Well - technically Windows XP Remote Desktop only allows for a single
instance of Remote Desktop/User Connections.
Speaking from a Windows 2003 server standpoint however; Terminal Services
Manager from the AdminPak is what you seem to be describing.

It sounds like you are talking about the Terminal Services Manager. With
that you can see who is logged onto a server via remote destkop, send them a
message, or force log them off if you have appropriate permissions. This is
part of the adminpak tools included with Windows Server 2003. It is a free
download from Microsoft and you can install them on Windows XP. You can get
the latest version from Microsoft at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...f5-232a-4fb5-bc14-45bfd81b7ac1&DisplayLang=en.
