For rdesktop? That's only single-user (unless you're running a Terminal Services server). Apparently there are ways to get around this though.

y, i want use my pc in admin for example, and my n900 in user or other account, but the 2 ON in the same time, because ussualy my brother is in my pc when im out, and if i want join in the rdesktop the account of my brother expire to the "welcome" desktop and if he want join other try more in the account, my cliente expire :(

No, remote desktop is only single user (and kicks out the local user as well) on Windows desktop OSes. The server versions allow more active sessions, and the terminal services even more. This page links to some ways of getting around it. I've not tried these though, and the usual warnings apply (may kill your cat, wipe your computer, trigger the heat-death of the universe, etc).

Does vnc mute sound like rdesktop? Or could I use vnc as a remote from my couch to put music on for example?

How do the refresh rates compare in the two applications?

Re: Step by step for VNC/Remote Desktop on N900
 

VNC doesn't mute the remote sound, no, so you could use it to control a music player. The sound would come from the PC though, not the N900 (which I think was what you wanted).

Generally speaking, VNC is slower to refresh than rdesktop, but works better over low-bandwidth connections. If you use a version with a mirror driver then response time is pretty good though (see http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=11).

in addition to what Rob1n said, the VNC icon in the system tray might show your local IP address, that's what happened in my case (10.0.1.XX)

i used www.whatismyip.com in order to find my external ip. it's the external ip that you need to configure into the VNC app on the N900.

Re: Step by step for VNC/Remote Desktop on N900
 

because microsoft says so.

there's no technical reason for it, it's just a business decision microsoft made, so they can continue to charge horrendous amounts of money for terminal server licenses.

but theoretically, this should work with VNC. if you allow "secondary login" and set up VNC servers with different screen names (":0" and ":1") in each of those sessions, it might work. no promises, though.

Re: Step by step for VNC/Remote Desktop on N900
 

I think that requires the commercial versions of RealVNC? It's certainly not been an option on any version I've run (well, apart from on Linux, where running multiple VNC servers is trivial).

Re: Step by step for VNC/Remote Desktop on N900
 

I guess I wasn't clear, but this is exactly what I wanted. That the sound comes from PC speakers I mean. Such a bother sometimes to get up to go change a song :)

Thanks a lot. I'll set it up right away.
