First, a little background... 

I use VNC at my company, combined with Remote Desktop Connection to tunnel 
from PC to PC on our equipment.  When locally at the equipment, PC #1 is 
the primary "Interface" PC, and PC #2 is the "back end" PC. When we need 
to connect locally from PC #1 to PC #2, we use Remote Desktop to connect, 
because PC #2 has no monitor connected to it (Yes I know KVM Would work 
better, but would be MUCH more involved). 

When In House (Being Built & Tested), if we need to remotely access our 
equpiment, we VNC into PC #1, then use Remote Desktop if we need to access 
PC #2. 

In the field (At Customer Location), we have an issue.  PC #2 is used for 
file transfer, and therefore has an outside network connection. PC #1, 
does not. I can go into the customer's VPN to access our equipment, but I 
have to go through PC #2, since that has the network connection. If I VNC 
into PC #2, I can then remote desktop to PC #1, but the local user's 
monitor goes black (As Remote Desktop can not shadow a session without 
using Windows Server 2003).  When I Remote Desktop into PC #2, and try to 
VNC into PC #1, I get a "The connection has been reset because another 
user has logged on", and then it disconnects my VNC from PC #2. 

Does anybody know if I can tunnel/shadow 2 VNC Sessions? about 75% of the 
work that needs to be done remotely needs to be done on PC #1, and getting 
another network line run to PC #1 IS NOT an option, nor is temporarily 
swapping cables (Realtime connections that can not be disconnected). Or, 
does anybody know why i get kicked out of a VNC Connection when I run the 
remote desktop? 

Thanks in advance, and if it makes it any easier, I can draw up a flow 
chart really quick to explain it a little better.
