Use a biometric device via remote deskop
I have two computers running windows 7 enterprise; both have fingerprint readers (one is an Upek fingerprint reader, and the other is an AuthenTec), and both of them are setup to allow me to log on with the fingerprint reader. I was wondering if it was possible to use the fingerprint reader from one of the machines to log on to the other machine via remote desktop. This forum is for Windows Home Server. Please post your question in the Win7 forums.

This should be based on the finger print program you installed. I suggest you contact AuthenTec support for more information.
