We have a common machine Windows XP OS is installed. Anybody can remotely connect to it. The problem is when an user called A is already connected to that machine remotely and doing something, if some other user called B remotely connects to it the user A is not warned that somebody else is trying to connect, simply the session gets disconnected and other user takes control of the system, how do we resolve it ?

Requirement :

  • Anybody can remotely connect to that machine

  • If a user is already connected he should be warned and he has to say 'OK' or 'Cancel' so that other user can connect

  • If the logged in user allows the new user to connect, then the new user should see the same screens, basically same session should be continued.

VNC may be a solution for you. It's free, and allows you to share the same remote desktop with multiple users. Just google "vnc".

RealVNC has a free edition, and seems to be the best of those I have found and tried (For Windows).
