Hi,
Can anyone confirm whether my symptoms are "by design" or that I have
overlooked something?
I oversee my son's PC with XP PRo. I have XP Pro. Both PC's have each
other's user accounts defined on each other. Access to each others
files/folders is fine. I don't know if its significant or not, but the
PC is set up for fast user switching.
I set up a Group Policy on my sons PC to enable accept remote logon
terminal connections. I think this both ticks and greys out the Remote
Desktop check box on the Remote tab in My Computer Properties.
I find that I can only attach to the remote PC if the login name I am
using on my sons PC is an administrator account. Obviously I want to
have my son as a limited user, but this prevents me logging in on his
account to carry out "housekeeping" tasks and testing.
I checked this by changing his account to Administrator and then the
remote login on his account worked fine. Changed him to Limited (using
my admin login) and remote desktop fails with a message that local
security prevents logon.
Is this by design? OR have I missed something?
If so it's highly irritating!!
TIA
