I use remote desktop quite a bit and I’ve noticed that on one of my machines when another user is already logged in it prompts them to allow me to log in, even for users with less privileges; however, with another computer, there is no prompt, it just proceeds with the remote logoff even for users with the same privileges. Both computers are XP professional SP3.

What could be causing this, and how (if possible) can I set this?

Thanks in advance.

p.s. I already know about other tools such as VNC and I use them too.

    This behavior is a ‘feature’ of fast user switching. After turning it off I am now able to remote desktop in without the user prompt.
