Ubuntu multiple KDE sessions for same user?
I have KDE on my Ubuntu and I have installed XRDP. I have startkde in my .xsession but I cannot login into it remotely unless I logout from it first.
The same is true vice-versa. If I logout and then connect using XRDP, I cannot login locally...
Is there any way I can stay logged in and remotely login with the same user?
-- EDIT --
I have a user that is always logged in on my NUC and is running a bunch of applications I need running 24/7. If I set that user to logout after 15 minutes (screen lock) I cannot access my applications (specifically, QBitTorrent Web UI).
I would also like to login to my NUC remotely so I setup OpenVPN and I am trying to login using XRDP. I can ofcourse access QBitTorrent Web UI, for an example, but I would sometimes like to install more applications.
My problem is that I cannot login using XRDP because the user is constantly logged in and running. Dropping a session would also make my applications unavailable after I logout from XRDP, wouldn't it?

You want to have two separate xrdp windows, with two separate ubuntu sessions running at the same time, but as the same user? Or do you want to "suspend" a session, then pick it up again later?

To be honest, I am a very basic Linux user so it is entirely possible I have a bad setup. I don't know WHAT I really wan't to do, but I know what is bothering me, so I put that in the question, hope that helps...
