No logout on disconnect

I've set terminal services to logoff after 1 minute of disconnect time. If
the user closes the application they have no way to bring it back. As I'm
running in application mode, the application doesnt come up if the user
reconnects. It was necessary to have the mandatory logout on 1 minute
disconnect. However, the logout isnt working.

I set it under User configuration - Administrative Templates - Terminal
services - sessions

Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Also, if you know a better way to
set this up for my situation, please post.

It is a little confusing as to what you are trying to accomplish here. Are
people logging into your terminal server, using an application, closing the
application, and then not being logged out properly?

As discussed earlier in this group, it is not logged out automatically
because there is one or more processes left running in the session.
First try to see if there it is possible to have the left processes
terminated in some way, check with tsadmin which processes are still
running in such a session (processes except csrss and winlogon).

That should have worked or you may try to change the same setting in
Terminal Service Configuration and properties for the RDP protocol.

If it is still not possible to solve you may wrap the application you
run in my logonwrap.exe utility:
http://here.is/olof/files/logonwrap.zip
Put the logonwrap.exe file in the Windows directory on the Terminal
Server and insert logonwrap.exe and a space first on the command line in
the terminal settings where you have selected which application you want
to run when users log on. This will ensure the session is logged out
when the application terminates.
