Multiple Terminal Sessions in Windows Vista

21 Nov

There were 2 ways (known to me) of extending Windows XP to offer mulitple concurrent Terminal Sessions. One with the RC1 version of XP SP2 and one that patches Winlogon and Termsrv.dll. The latter offers not only multiple sessions but also multiple sessions under the same account and sessions to the local machine.

Seems like the someone hacked Windows Vista Terminal server too by patching Termsrv.dll. Read more at source.

Did you apply the required registry settings?

Retraction:
Works only for several >remote< connections.
Vista patch does not need any registry or policy alterations.
Unfortunately for many Vista Developers, it is not possible to connect a second user locally while being logged on. So one need a second pc (VM or real) to test such things like user session managment capabilities for the app.
