Logging on remotely to Console session?

**OmJaa** · 12-02-2007

Hey guys, this SBS 2003, I need some urgent help from you all regarding the same. I am trying to logging on to the Console session of an SBS box remotely but have never been successful doing the same. It never allows me connect. I don’t know what mistake I am making here. I even tried using the -console switch but still not.

I'd like to be able to remotely login to an SBS box, but only connect to the console session (which is already logged in).Is this possible in SBS? Somebody please help.

I think it can be easily done from Start -> Run.. enter mstsc /console, then connect normally. Did you try that?

Also you can use realvnc.com, it works good. I have used it once.

Hello OmJaa, personally I have never faced any problem connecting console session on SBS. Can you just confirm if you are getting any error with connection failure? If yes, what exactly is that error message? Also I would like to know why the console session is always logged in (as you stated above)?

Ok, yes I am receiving an error message as well and it is as follows:

"Error Connecting to existing session for Administrator (ID 0). The operation completed successfully."

Please help.
