With Remote Desktop on Windows XP Professional or Windows Server 2003, System Administrator can have access to a Windows session that is running on your computer when you are at another computer.  What you need to do...    1. Run REGEDIT on your XP workstation or on your Windows 2000/2003 Server.
   2. Click on File, then choose "Connect Network Registry".
   3. In the Select Computer search box either browse Active Directory to locate the remote server, or type its name in the dialog box. Click Ok.
   4. In the remote machine's registry browse to the following key:

         
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server


   5. Under the Terminal Server key find the value named fDenyTSConnection (REG_DWORD). Change the value data from 1 (Remote Desktop disabled) to 0 (Remote Desktop enabled). Click Ok.
   6. Close Regedit.
   7. Reboot the remote machine for the change to take effect. You can easily do so by opening a command prompt and typing the following command:

       
shutdown -m \\srv1 -r


Right now, Remote Desktop will be enabled on it.
