Upgrade Remote Desktop in Vista to support multiple monitors?

Question

I am using Windows 7 and I was able to remote desktop into another Windows 7 machine and use multiple monitors.

Is there a way to do the same when connecting to a Windows Vista machine? Is there an update available anywhere for Windows Vista or do I have to upgrade it to Windows 7?

Answer 1

there appears to be limited support for spanning on wWindow Vista machines - see here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2009/07/01/using-multiple-monitors-in-remote-desktop-session.aspx
