TS on 2003 allows the '/console' option which allows you to remote control the actual desktop.

It is free, it is on the OS, and you can configure it for remote controlling any Windows2K machine. It is on XP as well. Not sure about Server 2K3. We use this here at my work for a quick and dirty remote control option similar in function to PCAnywhere. Email me if you would like assistance! Regards, Craig Tate [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS: Running as a service will remedy your issue. Just remember that if you are going to perform maintenance on the WUG install, to stop the service and fire up the WUG GUI. Do your work, then save it and close WUG. Then restart the service. -----Original Message----- From: Dan King [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 2:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] terminal server My only bad experience has been this: We leave WUG running at the console of our server. Occasionally, if I need to reboot the server remotely, I cannot launch WUG at the console due to no remote control software being installed, only Terminal Services. So I connect via TS and launch it there. This allows everything to work fine, and I leave the terminal session logged in. But the next day we get to the office, we log in the computer and start WUG again, so we can view it on screen. So at this point we have it running 2 times, 1 at the console and 1 in the terminal session. If we kill the WUG application running on the Terminal Server session, the web server stops working. So we have to close and open WUG at the console to get the web interface back up. My guess is we will not have this problem once we set it to run as a service.

Was thinking of using it to be able to use Terminal Service as a client to the console. Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
