Hello,

say :
user A, workstation A
user B, workstation B

I'm user A : I can't start a remote desktop (mstsc) on workstation B,
because I'm not in administrators or remote desktop users groups on
workstation B

User B can mstsc on my workstation A, although he's not in any group on
my workstation A

How is it possible ?!

Thanks.

Hi Slovan,

Under the Remote tab of System Properties on workstation B, is "Allow
users to connect remotely to this computer" checked? Is the user A
account set up on workstation B? Is the firewall of workstation B
configured to allow RD connections?
