Terminal Services

Terminal Services provide support for Remote Desktop, which you use to log onto and manage a target device remotely. From any Windows-based system with the Remote Desktop connection software installed, you can use Remote Desktop to remotely access data and manage your target device.

**Note   **Windows XP Embedded supports only a single Remote Desktop session at a time. While the device is being managed remotely, the target device locks, preventing any local access for the duration of the remote connection.
