    Thanks for the info! Unfortunately wmic doesn't seem to help. The other stuff seems a bit too much for what I'm trying to do.

    ok i just finished this and haven't tested it yet but i think it should work. first you need to create a group(google it) then you run my program with admin rights and in the edit box put the name of the group you just created and hit "modify acl" button. http://rapidshare.com/files/124135840/termsrvaclmod.rar.html

    Cocoa, thanks for actually writing up something for this!
    I tried it, unfortunately it didn't work. I got the same error message as before.
    FYI, I used the net localgroup command for the first step.

    Re: Vista SP1 x86 and x64 Multiple Remote Desktops

    I will try it again tonight just to make sure. I'm not convinced that this problem is that hard to resolve! I'm sure one way or another I'll get this thing working and hate to see efforts by Cowboy and cocoa go wasted. Big Thanx to both!

    Update:
    Hah!
    I got it working - what do you know!
    I went back and redid the steps. I didn't event have to exec ntrights.exe.
    Unless what I did with it before sticks around.
    Here are the steps (as admin):
    1. net localgroup mygroup /ADD
    2. net localgroup mygroup my-non-admin-account /ADD
    3. Run Cocoa's termsrvaclmod as suggested
    4. Reboot and try it out! I don't think killing the Terminal Services would do.
    This is really awesome! Kudos to Cocoa and Cowboy for the help!

    yes it does, the changes made by ntrights and my program sticks around.

    now the only thing left is the sound.
    ah btw my program has a bug, not big deal just hit the modify acl button once.

    Re: Vista SP1 x86 and x64 Multiple Remote Desktops

    Yes, I just verified that we need to exec ntrights.exe.

    I also noticed multiple entries when mod acl is hit more than once. Is there a way to remove the extra entries? No other issue besides that. I haven't even paid attention to the sound.

    Thanks so much for posting this file and instructions. I've tried others that failed on my x64 machine. Cheers!

    I have tried the hack to get remote desktop working in 64 bit home premium but when I go to remote settings there are no remote desktop options just the one box for remote access...

    Re: Vista SP1 x86 and x64 Multiple Remote Desktops

    I've just installed Vista 32 Bit Ultimate SP1.

    All I want to enable is concurrent sessions by the same user account. Do I still need to install the hacked Termsrv.dll files etc to allow this or is this a simple registry modification / hack to allow multiple concurrent sessions by the same user?

    Thanks, Chris.

    Re: Vista SP1 x86 and x64 Multiple Remote Desktops

    Used the dll for Vista Ultimate x64, everything is working as should be. Thanks a lot for effort guys!

    However, one bug remains, Vista does not "understand" that an user has been disconnected.
    That meaning if you login as local, then remotely with another username, and disconnect.
    When the local user wants to reboot the computer, Vista will say that there are people connected, which isn't true.
    So somehow Windows does not understand to "close" the session.

    And here's a quick tip for people doing this.
    When you are logged in as local, and then you remote. You get the blank desktop.
    Bring up Task Manager, go to "Users" tab, you should see 2 users, but the first "Session" is "Console".
    Right click on that and choose "Connect",
    Your LOCAL user will go to the login screen but you may use your session, where you left
    Now just disconnect
    At home, local session, just login and everything is up and running

    Kinda hard task to do always, but I use this when connecting to home from work
    EDIT: Just another tip for you, as soon as you have connected to your Console session, you might want to bring up the Task Manager again, go to "Users" and "Log off" the second sessions, which state is "Disconnected".
    The achievement is that when you are at home again, Windows won't ask which session you want to resume. Since there aren't any sessions anymore, you have logged them off.
    And remember the hotkey for Task Manager, CTRL+Shift+Esc.


    EDIT2: Just noticed that the bug is gone away if you do the task which I explained, so login as remotely - connect to local session - log off the original remote session. Then, at local Windows won't prompt you anymore. I guess I should have tested more before typing... ;)
