I have 4 XP Pro "shared" workstations set up to accept remote desktop connections for users within the office. Users are required to use smart cards to log in to any workstation. XP Pro users have no problem accessing the shared workstations using remote desktop and logging on with their smart cards. My W2K Pro users can access the shared workstation using remote desktop but cannot log in using their smart cards. If we allow them to, they are able to login by typing in their username and password rather than using the smart card. The W2K workstations are running SP4 with all security updates installed. Is this problem a limitation of W2K?

Please check wheather you enable EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) in Routing and Remote access snap-in.This protocol is used to support for the smart cards. This is my opinion.
