Default "Sticky" needed

Would it be so hard to include the links for the Terminal Services Client
v6.0 and Link Layer Topology for XP in a 'sticky' as the first entry in this
newsgroup? Seems it would save an awful lot of hassle for people trying to
read thru all these pages.

For Remote Desktop to work from a 'client' XP machine to a 'host' Vista
machine, the XP users need to download and install Terminal Services Client
v6.0: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925876.

For your XP Computers to show up in the Vista Network Map, you will need the
Link Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) Responder to be installed on the XP
Machine:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

Or better yet, why not make these part of Windows Update for XP Machines?

Actually, since this is a newsgroup rather than a web forum or similar,
it isn't even possible to make a "sticky" post as far as I know.

For Remote Desktop to work from a 'client' XP machine to a 'host'
Vista
machine, the XP users need to download and install Terminal Services
Client
v6.0: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925876.

The new RDP / Terminal Service Client is available through Windows
Update, but I've no idea why the new LLTD Responder isn't.

Regards,

Dave
