A couple sessions per User

When I go into Terminal Services Manager it lists all kinds of disconnected
connections along with the active sessions. It's strange because sometimes
it is the same username that is listed as disconnected 2 times. Wouldn't
that username pick up the other session from where they left off? I mean,
wouldn't each username only be listed once? Each user only uses one machine
(they never logon to another person's PC). Thanks for any help!
 
on the terminal server, go to terminal services configuration in
administrative tools
on the left, click on server settings
on the right, change 'restrict each user to one session' to yes
 
Normally, this is not a good setup. Most users will not be aware of
the disconnected sessions and will not be able to reconnect to
them. So they could have the same application open in several
sessions, and can get errors when the same document is opened in
them.

Are you sure this is windows 2000, I can find Server settings but there is
no 'Restrict each user to one session'
 
No, this is a 2003 setting only. See your other post for a solution
on W2K TS.
