On Windows XP Pro (with fast user switching enabled):
If I use Remote Desktop to log in, it works only, if that user is
already logged in. If the user is not logged in, the only thing I see
is "user being logged in" (rough translation from actual German
message) and "user being logged out", and the connection aborts.

Is there a setting that Remote Connections cannot establish new user
sessions? (That I might have accidentally switched on...)

Thanks for your help

Thanks!

Updating the video drivers worked for me on a similar problem I was having.
Remote Desktop worked the first time I'd use it, but would give me the same
error on subsequent attempts.
