When I open multiple RDP sessions with the same profile I can only open 1 instance of firefox. If I try to open a 2nd instance I get an error that says "firefox is already running." Is there any way to make this work to be able to run it in multiple RDP instances of the same user profile?

No, not with the same profile.

ahh much sadness. Seems like a pretty basic thing -- that IE and Chrome can both do. Frustrating. Thanks greatly for the response.
