Remote Desktop also requires multiple user work

   scene Reappearance:

5th Building 348 Dormitory Live some "rich", each classmate a computer, and another rich a computer, opened the Remote Desktop for everyone to use.

Windows XP Remote Desktop has a number of convenient places, students can be in the field or their own home remote control this computer, remote management, troubleshooting problems are easy to enjoy. But trouble also came: Every student has the right to modify the system (everyone is equal), once, a Mao log in, carry out the transfer of files and other operations, when the fat suddenly logged in, Mao was forced to log off! All file transfer work is banned! Not only that, if the Mao logged in with a problem, I hope that other people to log in to work together to resolve also not, because Remote Desktop allows only one user to log in.

Unfortunately, Remote Desktop only allows one user to log on. Suppose there are now two computers, Companyx and COMPANY-XP2 (this computer is installed SP2), now to connect to COMPANY-XP2 from Companyx through Remote Desktop, and then run "Companyx" on MSTSC, Enter the name and login username and password for the remote computer (see Figure 1).
Figure 1
Click "Connect", the COMPANY-XP2 Remote Desktop window appears on the Companyx, and it is indicated that another user Usery login on company-xp2 computer. If you continue to log on to COMPANY-XP2, the current logged-on user usery will be forcibly logged out (see Figure 2).
   Figure 2
Click "Yes" in Figure 2 to Companyx the Remote Desktop program to forcibly unregister the currently logged-on Usery user on COMPANY-XP2, so that the COMPANY-XP2 computer returns to the login welcome interface, while Companyx's Remote Desktop window displays the COMPANY-XP2 desktop. At this point on the COMPANY-XP2, no matter which user identity (such as ABC or usery) log on, COMPANY-XP2 will forcibly log off the Telnet user ABC, causing the remote connection to break-that is, whenever the remote Desktop allows only one user to log in!

   Solutions

At the beginning of this year, the SP2 of XP on the network will support multiple users to establish Remote Desktop Connection at the same time, was really happy for a while. such as the official version of SP2, hastened to try SP2 Remote Desktop multiuser support, find that you can't have two users logged in at the same time-whether they are logged on to two Remote Desktop connections at the same time, a remote desktop, a local desktop, either using the same username or using a different username, it doesn't work!
What the hell is going on here? Check out Microsoft's documentation on SP2 and see no instructions for Remote Desktop multiuser support. Search network, the introduction of multi-user support is the beginning of the information, recently such articles seem to have disappeared. So, is not Microsoft originally intended to let SP2 support multiple users to connect Remote Desktop, and then canceled it? In order to understand this problem, I installed SP2 computer on the SP2 of the official version of the Terminal Server to replace the SP2 beta version of the Terminal Server, it was successful in the same time set up two connections, the following describes the specific implementation steps.

The first step: the first is to install the SP2 official version on Windows XP, installed in the normal way, no longer repeat here.

Step two: Prepare an earlier version of the SP2 Terminal Server Software (which is said to be banned from build 2082, so it is best to use the previous version), the Chinese SP2 beta is harder to find, I use the English version of Build 2055, and after running, no problems were found. You can go from http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?s=85a71ca2987c89886c99733154ae685f&act=Attach&type=post&id =161513 Download build 2055 's Terminal Server execution file TermSrv.DLL. Downloaded from this link is an extension named. Dl_ file, you can change its extension to a zip file, and then unlock it with WinRAR.

Step three: Next, start Windows XP in Safe mode, and if you have multiple operating systems, you can start another system that can access the Windows XP system partition (unless you have Third-party tool software installed, Windows 98 cannot access the NTFS partition, so Windows 98 may be useless). Then, back up all the TermSrv.DLL in Windows XP that SP2 the full version, and overwrite the build 2055 version of TermSrv.DLL where all TermSrv.DLL files appear. Typically, TermSrv.DLL appears at least two locations, respectively: \windows\system32,\windows\system32\dllcache. Where the original TermSrv.DLL is used, the build 2055 version of the TermSrv.DLL is covered.

Step Fourth: Start Windows XP in normal mode, if the system's file Protection prompts that the TermSrv.DLL file has been modified, and asks if you want to recover, choose No.

Fifth step: Finally, the registry should be modified to increase the number of user licenses for the Terminal server. Since modifying the registry is cumbersome and error prone, you can modify the registry with the following batch command:

@echo off

Setlocal

Set regkey= "Hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\terminal server\licensing Core"

REG ADD%regkey%/V enableconcurrentsessions/t reg_dword/d 1/f

Endlocal

Save the above as a batch command file, such as Aa.bat, and double-click to execute it (see Figure 3).

   Small Tips

Remote Desktop can support concurrent user access only when Windows XP has the Welcome screen and Fast User Switching enabled. You can enable them from the following locations: "Control Panel → user account → change the way users log on or off."

  To sum up, the transformed XP remote server allows two different users to log in at the same time--although not compared to the powerful Terminal Services features of Windows Server 2003, it is better than nothing and barely a multi-user support. I tried to replicate Windows Server 2003 's Terminal Server to XP, but it didn't work. It seems that Microsoft has spared no effort to uphold the principle that, as a personal desktop operating system XP, multiple users are not allowed to use at the same time.
