Remote Desktop Connection: Access Windows from Mac

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

Get de RDC client for Mac from:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/remote-desktop/default.mspx

or better, use CoRD
http://cord.sourceforge.net/
… CoRD seems to handle Windows keymap better (Function keys etc…)

To enable Concurrent Sessions on Vista, and to activate RDC on Vista Home Edition, see here:

If Windows is running Vista SP1, take te Terminal Services DLL from here:

  2. Autofs goodness in Apple’s Leopard (10.5) – Part II

This blog entry summarizes what I actually needed: Easy AFP Automount on OS X 10.5
