Re: FN-FORUM: Remote Desktop Question (RDP)

You need to do the Options bit BEFORE you connect. You should also get a
warning message that this could be unsafe (you have to confirm).

Client drives appear in My Computer in another section called Other (not in
the hard drive section) with their original drive letters (C on clientPC, A
on client PC etc).

BTW Drive redirection doesn't work with a 2000 server, needs to be XP or
2003.
