andyd Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Is there still no better way of doing this? Just want to make sure before I go ahead and replace it on my bro's computer. Rather not use a older version of a file if it isn't necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda43 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 What on earth are you talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilifrei64 Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 he is talking about the termsrv.dll version like 2550 or something like that used in a RC of XP SP2. If you replace this dll it will allow for a user to log on via Remote Desktop without loggin on the console userand to answer the question.. no.. not unless you use like VNC or some variation of this sorta thing. The dll is fine though.. even though it is an older version.. it is only used for the one specific function and should not effect anything else on the computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoreGums Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 what about replacing the file via script that runs just after the splash screen disappears and windows logon appears?I'm in Sydney(city1), computer is in Brisbane(city2).I can only interact with the PC via Remote Desktop Connection.I need a script that can delete/replace the file in the dllcache & system32You know how chkdsk & partition magic & other tools can kick in before the windows logon process starts, how do you interact in that part of the boot process???TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davor Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Logging into a console sessions without locking the user out or something?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>yes. XP Supports only 1 user logged and 'interactive' with the PC.I would like to know if this thing is stable? Anyone had 'unpleasant issues" with it?Davor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoreGums Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 after much time installing xp sp2 brand new & updating it in a vmware sessionthis method in the sig9.com article works fine...granted i haven't done much with it yet as i was purely just getting it to work.the only problem will come when an update overrides the dll and you'll have to replace it again i'm guessing.

ixion Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 ok I've given it a read - from what I understand you have to have quick switching enabled, so this will not work in a domain environment as adding to a domain disables quick switching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
