Default Limit sessions to one per login name?


Hi,

Have a number of login names configured on the terminal server. How can I
prevent more than one person from logging in using the same name at he same
time? I do not have active directory set up.

Thanks

Thanks, LockSingleUser2 looks like it should do the trick. Seems like a
pretty basic functionality to leave out of TS.
