For those of you running dual monitors, or with customers running multiple Terminal Server sessions because they have dual monitors, this command’s for you:
MSTSC /span
“The /span command matches the remote desktop width and height with the local virtual desktop, spanning across multiple monitors if necessary. To span across monitors, the monitors must all have the same height and be aligned vertically.”

Unfortunately remote desktop treats that as single monitor anyway, so if you try to maximize program then it will be expanded to both monitors. Also there is lack of other features of dual monitor configuration. Hope it is will be possible to connect two virtual displays soon.

Using Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2, you can have multimonitor support that uses the /multimon switch instead of the /span.
