I have 2 questions regarding RDP functionality with Vista:

1. I want to be able to establish an RDP session to my home PC while another
user is logged on interactively on it without logging him/her off. I am able
to do so with my current XP setup, what about Vista? Are there any methods,
official or unofficial?
2. Every time I want to log on thru RDP I need to wait for confirmation from
already logged on user. How to force log on w/o this annoying nuisance? I'm
the only Administrator of my PC, after all.

How do you do this with XP???
 
I was only aware you could acommplish this with Remote Assistance - NOT
Remote Desktop. RD always forces other user off.
 
I understand that this was removed by SP2. Haven't tried it since the SP2
beta (which is where it was first found to work). Also, as I understood it,
replacing termserv.dll with the earlier beta file also exposes the machine
to some security vulnerabilities.
