Thank you for the update. I had been using the version that worked in XP SP2, and was disappointed that SP3 wouldn’t work with it. I had used a different patch for a while, but yours is easier to install. I’ll try it out.

By the way, a pet peeve of mine for Windows Remote Desktop is that it won’t display high color-depth. It turns out that telling the Remote Desktop Client to use high color won’t work if the host computer has not been set to allow high color in its remote sessions.

There are instructions on setting higher color depth for remote sessions at

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278502&sd=tech

Would you be able to incorporate these changes into your Terminal Server Patch installer? Otherwise, perhaps a link to those instructions would be useful for others who wish to use it.

Thanks again. This is a great patch!

I have been really busy lately, so I try to answer the question asp and add more supported version asp.

1) This patch does not have 64bit support and only windows xp is supported. Meaning that vista and server 2003 is not supported 32bit or otherwise.

2) There is no source code for this patch, because it is patch. You can install it and run some compare app to get patched offsets and values.

3) If you uninstall this patch and some problems still remains, this means that your problem is not related to this patch. You can also run windows system file restore, to make sure that everything in your system is original/unpatched/hacked etc.

4) You cant log in with same account that is already logged in. Look screenshots, there you can see what you can do after installing this patch.

Happy new year

Installed the patch, no difference, only one session on XP sp2. Every time the console is kicked off.
verified the file date was changed (date of patch install)

Looked the key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Licensing Core]
“EnableConcurrentSessions”=dword:00000001 (Changed it to 3)

Looked in the policy editor: “Administrative Templates\Windows components\Terminal …”, does not exist !

Any suggestions ?

I recently installed your terminal server. I also added the appropriate registry key, and set its value to one (1). Unfortunately, though, only one user is able to use the remote computer at a given time. Every time I access the computer it says that someone else is using it and will have to log off. I thought that your software was to prevent this from occuring? I should note that there is one user seated directly at the computer. I installed your software on my computer and added the additional registry key on the ‘host.’ Fast user switching and the welcome screen have been activated on the host computer. Could you please be so kind as to inform me as to what I have done incorrectly?

Did I install your software on the incorrect computer? Does your software not work if a user is sitting at the host computer? If this is the case then will you offer a version of your software which will permit this situation?

I am really in need of software which will enable me to remotely access a computer at which a user is working. I need to be able to log on both as the user or as a separate user WITHOUT INTERFERING WITH THE USER WHO IS SEATED AT THE COMPUTER. Can you please tell me how to do what I need to do?

Thank You!
