Error DataBase-One Place all Solutions .: Operating Systems .: Windows Operating Systems .: Windows 2000 .: Difference between MSTSC/console and Remote Desktop Connection

Difference between MSTSC/console and Remote Desktop Connection

mstsc.exe *is* Remote Desktop Connection.
If you type a IP Address and append /console in RDP Client, that's the same as mstsc /console.

If targeting a XP or Vista pc, no difference in any case
If targeting wiin2003, /console connects you with the interactive session of that server, while without /console you will get a separate session.
