Re: Remote Desktop - Able to have one user logged in locally and one user via remote desktop?

This'll be available on Longhorn Server as it is on previous server OS's,
but not Vista. I see what you mean, but it's not possible without a Vista
client being it's own Terminal Server.

Pffft I'd love if it they did though - I feel your pain brother.
