Concurrent Logons in XP

    I quite often find myself switching between my 2 pc's both with XP pro on them. I sometimes use terminal services to monitor whats happening on one from the other. However when I logon back on locally it logs me out of the terminal services connection.

    Is there anyway I can enable concurrent logons (with the same userid) that would stop this from happening? Its nothing major just one of those little things ......

    No - not unless you're running a windows of the terminal server variant. Concurrent sessions will be allowed in XP SP2 tho :)
    For the meantime - how about VNC over ssh?

    SSH and Vnc might be a bit of an overkill...its just lazyness really, since both boxes are connected to the same keyboard and monitor....:D

    And on a related note - is it possible to have two internet connections open (1 b/b and 1 dial up) at the same time on the same pc?

    Yea but not easily - if there are two traversable interfaces on your puter one will be set as default - so unless you wanna go arsin around with routing tables, eg Destination IP Address 1 go out through interface 1, Destination IP Address 2 go out through interface 2... etc, best stick to one interface at the time. Someone else might point out an easier solution in the Net/Comms board
