Is there a mod you can make to XP Pro registry to allow multiple users to
log on simultaneously (via RDP)?
I understand you could do that in WIN NT.
 
Windows XP Professional allows up to ten concurrent connections.
Beyond ten, you'll need a server operating system, such as Windows
Server 2003.

No. And there's no remote desktop in NT...
You can use W2000/2003 server & set up terminal services in application
mode/remote desktop, if you get enough licenses.
 
Yes, Windows NT Terminal Server Edition allows this but:
You must have enough licenses. (or use Administration mode
with limited connections)
You must be running either:
- Windows NT TSE Server
- Windows 2000 Server
- Windows Server 2003
This is called Terminal Services. It is not available in
this form in Windows XP Pro.
 
Thanks, But how do you get more than one logon - because each time I try to
get a second user on, the previous one is disconnected. This is with RDP
BTW.
 
See my reply - you can't, unfortunately.
