Hosting games via Remote Desktop Connection?

If you are using a dialin server that is windows to host a game, then you should be able to play it from your desktop computer. That way running it and playing in it should not comflict with each other.
Just guessing.

(and yes I typed comflict. Its an old computer pun)

The problem is that if you want to use RDesktop with more than 2-3 concurrent sessions then you have to spend $$$. Not that it's any different to serve 2, 5, 12 or 100 people at once, but you can extort money by it. And since all the sessions are already in use I won't put up with that Microsoft crap, my tolerance limit is too low since there IS a better alternative. Back to Linux, with no artificial limits imposed. (yes, I am quite irritated and annoyed about this stuff...)
