Hi, I'm using dual monitors (actually a 15.4 notebook and a 15" LCD) at home and got the second as an extension. When I log in to my work's terminal server I don't or can't move my windows to the 2nd monitor.

Is there someway to do this? Or is it an administrative right to be able to?

Locally on my desktop it functions wonderfully.

I've tried >>Start>>Run>> 'mstsc /span' but for some reason that doesn't work either.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
vagabond

I am not sure if any terminal window client software supports multiple monitors and it has been my experience that one can not change the screen size/resolution/color remotely. I suspect that this is also limited to reduce bandwidth use issues.
