Hello,

i want to prevent the users to use multi access sessions on network, by use
1 session only per user
For example, if a user is logon on one workstation, he cannot logon to
another one if he didn't logout from the first one.

how i can do that?


Thanks
 
Your best best may be to setup a session limit on the properties of the
users accounts. From within Active Directory Users and Computers (DSA.MSC)
drill down to the location of the account(s) and go into the properties of
the account. The settings are in the Sessions folder tab.

This will not directly prevent dual or multiple sessions, however it can
work to the same effect. I would suggest setting an active session limit of
1 day, an idle session limit of 15 minutes with a setting of "end session"
at those times. This means that after 15 minutes a session is idle, or at
the end of 1 day (whichever happens first), the session will end.

This should limit multiple sessions from single users, and would also help
with occasional accout lockout difficulties cropping up from the same
reason.
