I have setup my PC connected to my TV to place MCE but I have a second user setup so I can login via RDC to do stuff on the PC like install files, download stuff etc. etc.

But when I try and open an RDC connection, after I login, vista gives me the error that there is already someone logged in and my session will end up disconnecting theirs. Is there a way to permit dual logins?

2/27 EDIT: Now with instructions for getting this to work in Vista HOME PREMIUM!!!!! Click read more to see the steps.

Ok, so let's get on to the steps:

Download Sunmorgus' (from TheGreenbutton.com) hacked Termsrv.dll file HERE (If you're using Vista HOME PREMIUM, use this link and follow the reg instructions below.)

[LIST=1] []Now, Vista's security needs a little massaging to allow you to modify the original termsrv.dll file, found in C:\Windows\System32, so.... []Click Start, then type "cmd" in the search box & hit enter. This will launch the Command prompt []Type the following & hit enter: takeown /f C:\Windows\System32\termsrv.dll []Then type this & hit enter (NOTE: Replace USERNAME with YOUR USERNAME!! If your name has a space in it, enclose it with quotes, like "Mike Garcen"): cacls C:\Windows\System32\termsrv.dll /G USERNAME:F []Then go to your Windows Explorer, and go to C:\Windows\System32 []Rename the original termsrv.dll to something else, like "termsrv.dll.ORIGINAL", just in case []NOTE If you are unable to do the above, try rebooting into SAFE MODE []Then copy & paste the Hacked DLL you downloaded in Step 1 into the C:\Windows\System32 folder [*]And voila! [/LIST][/QUOTE]

If you need the file, here it is (just rename extension to .dll)

Re: Is Vista Ultimate true single user login?

Boy these guys are awesome. No more running all that stuff manually. I just found a script that will auto-install everything for you. All you need to know how to do is "double-click". I found this one for Vista only. 32 and 64 bit versions. Both running SP1.
