IPOD 2 Issue

I have multiple Ipod 2s I want to connect to a terminal server.  I am using RDP Lite to connect.  The problem is that when I connect the first Ipod the terminal server logs it on with the computer name of Iphone even though it is set up with another name.  The terminal sees all Ipods as having the name of Iphone, therefore, only one Ipod can log on at a time because terminal servicedds will not allow multiple logons using the same computer name.  Do you know how I can get my terminal server to recognize the various Ipod names so all Ipods can logon?

It sound like RDP light is creating the iPhone name. You could try a different RDP app to see if you have the option of changing the name. I've just had a look at PocketCloud and unfortunately that defaults to a preset name also.

I changed the names byconnecting the Ipod to my computer and firing up Itunes and clicking on devices and editing the name.  The names are there when I go back and check but terminal server still sees their names as Iphone.
