Logmein would be more practical.

Re: Is there a Remote Desktop HOW TO thread?
 

There is actually no way to get around this, when you log on from your phone, it will log off that account on the computer. You could create a new user as an Admin, and then just log into that account when you log onto your computer from your phone, but it would still "switch user" and it would ask the user currently logged on if they wanted to switch.

The only other way that I can think of would be to use a VNC server, but I haven't been able to find any free VNC viewers for windows mobile (or at least ones that works).

Re: Is there a Remote Desktop HOW TO thread?
 

I actually found a VNC program and I think it will work for what you want it to do, I can try to make a step by step guide to set this up.

1. Download and install UltraVNC found here. Also download this VNC viewer for windows mobile.

2. Once you have UltraVNC installed, start the program "UltraVNC Server" once started an icon looking like a blue box with an eye in it will open in the taskbar. Right click it and select "Admin Properties". Now configure those settings to these: http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/...erversetup.jpg.
(But change the password's to your own of course.)

3. Now you are going to have to forward ports on your router again. Forward port 5900 to the IP Address found before.

4. Onto the phone part, take the downloaded .zip folder (the second download in step one) and extract it somewhere on your phone (it shouldn't matter where).

5. Once the previous folder is on your phone, open it the folder, then click on the program "vncviewer". Again go to this site to find your IP Address. Once you have the IP Adress, enter it in the "Server" box, followed by "::5900" (without the quotes, but with both colon's). Then in the "Password" box enter the password that you chose in step 2. The other settings you can either leave, or adjust as you like. Once you have the settings just click "OK" and wait for it to connect.

(Also if you are getting an error or can't connect, allow port "5900" as both a UDP and TCP in the windows firewall)

This way you can both see the same screen, and can both have control.

If you have any questions let me know and I will try to help.

Re: Is there a Remote Desktop HOW TO thread?
 

What do you mean by "connect your TP2 to Windows XP"? If you mean through remote desktop that has been covered in the first page.

Re: Is there a Remote Desktop HOW TO thread?
 

Does anyone know of a step by step instructions for connecting to my laptop running windows 7 Professional from my TP2 over the internet using the remote desktop mobile on my TP2? I saw earlier in the thread where someone posted a link to set up the windows 7 part of it and I went through that but when i try to connect it just says "An internal error has occured."
