Prev: Port 3389 is not listening in Windows 2003 Server
Next: Error connecting to existing session
From: Ivan Brugiolo [MSFT] on 6 Nov 2006 20:36
Steps are:

On the target WinXp box:
enable file-and-print sharing at the firewall
enable Remote-Desktop at the firewall
reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server" /v
AllowRemoteRPC /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f
Change the policy `Set Rules for remote control of terminal services user
sessions` to `Full Control` / `View`
reboot
make sure you can use `qwinsta /server:<winxp-machine-name>` from any other
machine.

from your current machine, TS into an `intermediate` win2003-server (it
could be localhost, but, you need a *new* remote session).
From within the *new* ts session to the Win2003-Server, type in `shadow.exe
0 /server:<winxp-machine-name>.
Observe that the current TS-Cliet get switched to the mirroed voew of the
console of the WinXp Machine
