Remote Desktop Logging on And Off

G

Guest

I administer a network where I need to log into machines remotely, log out as a Power User and in as an administrator, install software and then log back off. I have been using 2000 workstations with Netmeeting. However, when playing around with Remote Desktop Connection, I can connect to a machine remotely, but when I go to "Start", the only choice I have is to disconnect. How can I log off of this machine and log back in as another user?

Can you not use "RUN AS" to install the application with Admin privs, but
when logged in as the Power User?

Anyway - as to your question - with the remote machine in focus - press
CTRL+ALT+END - it acts like CTRL+ALT+DEL on the remote machine.

After connecting to a remote machine, with their screen
maximized, I hit control+alt+delete, and it logs me off
of my own machine, not the remote machine. Any other
suggestions?
