Windows XP Enable Remote Desktop Before logon

[David Salanon]

Hello all,

Does anyone know how to get remote desktop working
when the workstation first boots (without a user logon)?

Here is the problem.

When you first turn on the PC, and get a Domain Logon
screen, I can't connect to the PC Via Remote Desktop.

If The PC Boots Up and the user logs in and/or logs off
(without rebooting PC), you can then connect to the pc via
Remote Desktop.

HELP!!!

I can. In fact, I can routinely turn domain workstations on, run remote
desktop sessions with them, and turn them off when done.

What kind of nics?
Say a bit about the network involved.

Change the settings on Fast User Switching... This apparently causes
this issue (at least for people in the past who have posted on this
issue).

FUS is disabled in a domain, though (?)

Yep.. Missed the domain reference... There should be an issue
then... I can RD into any office machine after a boot with no
problems....
