From what I know, Remote Desktop allows only one simultaneous user, just as only one user could physically be at the computer at a time. I believe in order to accomplish this, you would need to set up a Terminal Server and then have the users connect to it.

There is a 3rd party program called WinConnect that can enable up-to 21 concurrent sessions on an XP Pro machine.
