Is it possible to have 2 sessions/users (or more) simultaneously running (one local, one remotely)? When I login from the amiga, the local session is suspended.

I think this should be possible with a multiuser system like windows... (Multiuser in sense like running both at the same time, not just having multiple accounts).

@Cass

Well the problem is that Windows isn't really multiuser. It's single user OS with some hacks bolted onto it allow multiple users and remote access.

It is definately possible, however it's only supported like that under Windows 2000 and 2003 servers.

XP Pro is only "one user at a time", "one desktop at a time".

Server allows multiple simultaneous users connected all accessing separate desktops.
