 Hi, I have Windows 2003 domain working. I need to allow only one network
logon per user.



The example is:



User: username

Status: Logged



If user username try to login from a different machine, and he is logged in
another, the login attempt must be denied



How can I accomplish this?



Thanks in advance

 Hello,

you can use limitlogin:
Limiting a user's concurrent connections in Windows Server 2003, Windows
2000, and Windows NT 4.0
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B237282&x=10&y=10

the free addon itself is here:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/d/0/fd05def7-68a1-4f71-8546-25c359cc0842/limitlogin.exe


The other way is to only allow one login to log on one station. That's poor
& static.

Why do you need to do this? What security risk do you need to mitigate?

I'm building a product that is accessed with a username and password, and
for preventing unauthorized access to it, I need to prevent multiple
simultaneous logons with the same username and password



Sorry about my English. Let me know if the answer is clear
