I was forced to get a windows 2003 server for xrumer usage. So to all the windows peeps, what's your equivalent of

linux

  screen, which if you don't know is a handy little program that lets you create sessions and run stuff without you being logged in. Or anything that will let me start a remote desktop connection and let me exit it and leave it running.

Cheers

oh right, just exiting remote desktop keeps the session logged in... ignore the noob

be careful though, there are only 2 remote desktop sessions (technically 3, but thats a little complicated). As such, you can very easily lock yourself out.

I actually don't know this answer. I know you can run something with the scheduler regardless of being logged in, because thats what I do. What it would be is to run something as a service, but I don't know how to do that.

yep, found that out the hard way :-)

you can usually log in through the console which is a switch that you can set when you open a TS/RD connection. I think its /console on the end of it. Or there is a checkbox if you use the TS snap-in in the MMC, but im doubting you are doing that. sometimes that doesnt seem to work, and I think its a version issue but never bothered to figure it out.

I use and love the free service from www.logmein.com

Will that not work, when used once per user account with N user accounts ??
