Hi All,

I have a client who uses our TS. They have two computers.
(Vista home 64 bit -- ye gads!). When they exit their app,
Terminal Services Manager shows them as "disconnected".
They use the same account and logon.

Problem: if both of them have logged in on the same day,
then both disconnect, when one goes to relogon, they get
a prompt as to which one of the two session they want to
use. And somehow, they manager to mess things up.

Is there a way around this prompt? Can I set the TS such
that it just automatically pick the oldest disconnected
session?

Many thanks,
-T

Maybe you could teach them how to really exit their app,
instead of merely disconnecting from it?

Give each user (=person) a unique account.

They do "File", "Exit". The connection then goes from "active"
to "disconnected". I thought this was normal behaviour.

What am I missing?

Hi Vera,

For security purposes, we want them on the same
account (it is a long story).
