Is there a way to find out who is access my computer using Remote Desktop? If
so, can I kick them off?
 
By default only administrators can access remote desktop.
1. Right mouse click on My Computer and choose properties
2. Click on the Tab Remote - you should see a check mark box that says
"Allow users to connect remotely to this computer" and a button that says
"Select Remote Users..."
3. Click on Select Remote Users.... - this will show you who can access your
computer through Remote Desktop.

If all of the users are Administrators on your computer then they can RDP to
your computer.

Jerry, I assume that you need Remote Desktop for some reason. If not, kill it. I'm not a
user but I'll bet there are passwords available, so that only 10 or 20 of your closest
associates can climb on.

Thanks John for your reply. The situation is: An administrator has logged in
using Desktop. His screen is locked up. It is slowing down the server, and he
can only click the X to close the screen, but his login is still running and
locked up. I would like to know if I can stop his login. I know I can restart
the server to accomplish this. But we dont really want to do this yet.
