Title: Prevent concurrent logons in domain
Post by: antystein on September 06, 2012, 04:55:26 PM

I have an SME server installation, with Windows XP clients. I need a way to prevent users to logon into the domain locally, using the same account more than once. I found there is a way to adjust concurrent connections for IMAP per IP

Code: [Select]

But is there a way to do something similar for local network connections per user? (and in this case windows sessions)

Thanks

Thank you for your replies. To bring the SME server to run to the state it does today for me, took a good amount of searching and reading. I thought I was missing something simple (or build-in) here, that someone else will know and once I was in a hurry today I thought of asking. I admit that the answer came really fast.

Thank you again.

I am looking for something reliable (or as reliable as windows will allow), so if I manage to build something myself, I will post it here.
