I have 2 accounts on my machine one is the foreground account (console) that runs media center software.
The other account runs other programs I use in a remote desktop session.
I have enabled group policy to force 1 account per RDP session to stop applications starting multiple times.
But I cannot create a startup task to login the 2nd user when the 1st account autologin takes place on boot.
Is there a way to create a user session without RDP?
Everytime I try to RDP to the machine locally with or without console flag i get this error "Your computer could not connect to another console session"

I am in the same position as you. I have my media center login which logs in automatically and which starts uTorrent up as well.
Now I am able to login as a remote user using another account, but I am unable to configure/view uTorrent.
The simplest solution is to give the hostname as 127.0.0.2 in mstsc. This will allow you to logon to another RDP session on the same machine.
However, I am stuck trying to run it from a command line. The first login works, but it is unable to save the username/password in a saved session.
Hope this works for you. Please revert if you have any suggestoins on this,
