windows xp - Detect RDP Session on Remote WinXP machine (not on local network or domain) -

-

i have set win xp machine @ work use our server, allow rdp connections. allows our staff access server home when needed. not server os, missing many of terminal services features regular server have. machine allows 1 rdp session @ time (which minor inconvenience, not big deal).

what bothersome, no 1 can tell if server being used in rdp session, , keep booting each other off. every solution have found online assumes remote computer server os or on local network/domain. our staff's home computers not connected office network , have no domain set @ office.

is there way tell if server in rdp session before remoting onto server home? ideally able detect home computer accessing server. if not possible, extremely helpful @ least know rdp session running.

we using logmein, tell if remote computer keyboard , mouse active , allow chat user remoted on/physically on machine. extremely convenient, involves logging onto logmein website , going through semi-lengthy process of connecting. slower , resolution worse rdp. not super convenient regular daily use.

this post deals same issue https://superuser.com/questions/313390/ways-to-check-if-user-is-active-on-remote-machine-before-rdping

but accepted response use qwinsta on cmd, believe available on server os's. other responses include using psexec (i've tried using psloggedon.exe, appears work users on same domain). suggests using wmic.exe command, when try error: rpc server unavailable (i think needs run on same domain).

so - there way check active rdp sessions on win xp machine remote computer not on local network/domain?

any help/suggestions appreciated. i'm open outside-the-box solutions writing simple app run on xp server , tell remote machines ip connected in rdp session.

going on harry johnston's suggestion, wrote app finds connected xp machine on port 3389, , relays information udp receiving apps. can check if connected , before unwittingly booting them off. harry!
