Virtual desktops in a remote terminal session?

Doesn't seem to work.

Sunday, September 25, 2005 by Gilboa | Discussion:

Hello all,

As the title suggests, I'm trying to use Virtual desktops on my XP/SP2 machine.
When I login locally, everything seems to work just fine.
When I login remotely, the VD option is missing from the toolbar add menu.
This happens with all the VD versions I tested. (Including the latest 1.99rc02)

I’m not sure it’s connected, but I’m connecting to the machine from my Linux workstation running rdesktop 1.4.

Help?

I suspect Remote Desktop is disabling the abiity to have virtual desktops since it in itself is a virtual desktop. But that's just a guess.
