Q: Prevent Multiple User Logins

Post by Adam P. Japh » Sat, 21 Jun 1997 04:00:00



OK I'm having trouble tracking this down, so I'll pose the question up
here.
I want to prevent users from logging in more than once to a server,
'cuz having them login multiple times seems to be screwing things up
to all hell and beyond
how do I enforce this on the server level?
thanx

Q: Prevent Multiple User Logins

I'd love to know of a solution too. So far, everyone has said it is
not possible.

One possible alternative, only allow them to login from one
workstation or set a share maximum of 1 to their user directory. This
won't help me in my situation, but might help someone else.

You can limit them to one connect to a home share, then in the login script
you say something like
  if not exist P:\NUL LOGOFF.EXE
(assuming you map the home drive to P:).

Of course, this will also stop them from working if their home directory is
unavailable for any reason, eg server down...

LOGOFF.EXE is available somewhere, maybe jsiinc.com or savilltech.com.

 
 
 

1. I have multiple users, but I want the guest user to always login in first

I have multiple users on my computer so everytime I turn
on the computer it ends up in the Welcome Screen.  I just
want it to bypass the Welcome Screen and Login as the
guest or a predetermined user.  And just allow a user to
log in to their account if they want to.  Can this be done?

Thanks,
