I often use the /console option in Remote Desktop to connect to an existing session.  Generally I leave my desktop logged in and locked at work – if I need to access any files on it remotely I can VPN into my works network and use Remote Desktop to connect to “computername.work.edu /console” and it will connect to my existing session. It’s great, because it means I can leave VS or SQL Server Management Studio open and acces my work right from where I left off.

However, after installing the latest RC of SP3 on my laptop, I can no longer connect from my  laptop to my desktop.  I can’t find a work around and have downgraded back to SP2 and am happily Remoting again
