Hello together,

I have a special demand with a Terminal Server
Application. Therefore I need to secure, that a user can
only be log on once at the time.

For example, if a connection with the username "xy" is
logged on the Terminal Services and another user tries to
log on with the username "xy" (over terminal session) the
session will be rejected.
If the username "xy" logs off, another connection with the
username "xy" can be done.

Thanks for your help

Christoph

Q. How can I limit Terminal Services so a user can only connect
one time?

A. For Windows 2000, there is a third-party application available
that does this - see thethin.net/r25b.zip.

For Windows Server 2003, set "Restrict each user to one session"
to "Yes" in Terminal Services Configuration. Alternatively, set
the "Restrict Terminal Services users to a single remote session"
group policy to "Enabled".
