Can't RDC into Server simultaneously?

Hello all,

I'm having issues not being able to remote into server along with another admin simultaneously. If I'm in a session, he remotes in, and kicks me out.  We are running  Windows 2008 Server & Windows XP clients. Server configered to accept RDC.
In SysProp. "Allow connections from computers running any version of RD;
RDP-Tcp Prop. Network Adapter tab>Max. Connections: 2

Why can't we both access the server without one of us being kicked off?

I shouldn't have to install Terminal Server, should I?

Thanks in advance.

no you shouldn't, but there may be an admin acount already in session and you both go after it.  If one of you looks at the users logged into the server when RDC'd do you see more than one already there and one is just "idle" or "disconnected"? You can also look at the terminal server manager to see what happens when the both of you try to connect.

Log off the console.

The console logon counts as a connection.
