Will this remote connection scenario work?

okay, this is what I am trying to do.
I have a headless Windows XP server. I want comp-a to connect to server and at the same time comp-b to connect to the server, both logged in the same profile (clone mode, both seeing the same thing). Since Remote desktop does not allow 2 simultaneous connection, I want comp-a to login and another program to login at the same time.
Will it work? If not, what options do I have?

Thanks
 
Well I don't know what "another program" is, but if it doesn't interfere with Remote Desktop, and Remote Desktop doesn't interfere with it, then why wouldn't it work?

Try it, and let us know.

try using VNC (google, theres a couple of options)
someone else here can probably tell you if this multiple-login idea will work or not, and why
 
I've run a "LogMeIn" connection to watch somebody else who was running a Remote Desktop Connection to the same box. It works.

Which version of LogMeIn do you use? Was it web browser based? I am just worried about using it over the internet, since I just want to keep it within my LAN.
Also, I really do not like how LogMeIn, has all my information/profile on the site.

Yes, I am a newbie to VPN related stuff.

Thanks
