In Win2k/Win2.3k is there a way to limit concurrent user logons, ie, they
can only be logged into one workstation at a time?

Thanks.
 
Hi,

I did research and found out on how to limit the concurrent connections in
Windows 2000. For more information look at

Limiting a User's Concurrent Connections in Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0
===================================================================
View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q237282

SUMMARY
===========
This article describes how to limit concurrent connections for all users in
a Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0 environment.

MORE INFORMATION
====================
Install the Windows 2000 Resource Kit tool named CConnect.exe on each
client computer. This tool, in conjunction with an .adm file supplied by
the tool, can perform the following functions:
Limit concurrent connections per user.
Log off remote computers when concurrent connections are reached.
List all computers that a user is logged on to.
List logon servers for each user.
Show how many users are logged on to a domain controller (DC).
Force a logoff when concurrent connections are reached.
Enable debugging of the CConnect tool.
Write events to the event log of a specified server concerning the status
of the CConnect tool.
Save all lists to a file for further examination.

Track the last user of the computer and only limit that user from logging
on to the computer if the computer was shut down improperly.
This tool is included with the Windows 2000 Resource Kit and works with
both Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000. For Windows 2000, there are no system
requirements. For Windows NT 4.0, the following requirements exist:
Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 or later must be installed.
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.0 must be installed.
Windows Scripting Host must be installed.
Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) must be installed.
Version 2.0
Version 2.0 supports Terminal Server restrictions.
Requirements
Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server: Service Pack 4 or later
Windows 2000: No requirements

Version 2 will be available for public use on the next Windows 2000
Resource Kit. Version 1.3 is on the first Windows 2000 Resource Kit.

Thanks,
