Hi;
First of all, thanks for your quick response. Because I have another user who is using Remote Desktop on Windows XP too, if I put the registry key on Windows 2003 server, does it affect those XP users?

I open Remote Desktop client program from my Vista Business and want access to my Terminal Services server which is Windows 2003 but I receive the following message and cannot sign on to Terminal Services server, how to solve it?
Remote Desktop cannot verify the identity of the computer you want to connect to. This problem can occur if:
1) The remote computer is running a version of Windows that is earlier than Windows Vista.
2) The remote computer is configured to support only the RDP security layer.
Contact your network administrator or the owner of the remote computer for assistance.

I once got that error to when connecting to an XP machine - I just clicked OK and continued on to connect successfully.
A workaround could be to use alternative Remote Desktop Sofwtare - ie www.tightvnc.com
