Hi, I am running a Windows Server 2003 and have several XP computers connected to the domain server. I connect to the server and also a XP machine remotely using Remote Desktop Connection. Is there a way of monitoring or logging who has connected to the computers by RDP and also if a connection is still current and not logged on and if so can it be terminated ?
Also is there a way of allowing the Remote Desktop connection as Read Only so the Remote computer cannot be changed at all ?

The Event Viewer will show the logins if you're auditing that particular item. If there is currently someone logged into the machine, you will get a notification window that states your logging in will log off that user.
As for "Read Only" that's not integrated into Windows, although there may be a third party utility that allows for that.
