I am using XP sp2 to XP sp2 using a VPN and remote desktop.
Is it poossible to allow someone sitting at the host computer to see what I
am doing.
Is there a setting somewhere that can be changed?

Any reason why you post this to a Macintosh newsgroup?
You will probably get much better help in
microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely

That said, no, XP supports only a single rdp session.

What you can do though is use Remote Assistance. That enables you to
shadow the active session on the host and interact with it.

Didn't realise it was a Mac newsgroup
