On a Windows 2000 domain, is there some way to limit the number of simultaneous logons? I want that an user/password account can't log on a domain's client more than 1 time simultaneously. Now some users log on 2 or 3 PC at the same time (with the same account/password). I want to limit this behavior.
Thanks a lot

You can setup the account so that it can be logged in to only one computer. This would effectively restrict the user to one logon at a time.

The user change his client computer every time that logon. I need that only one simultaneous logon is accepted. Where on the account can I setup this?

I read the document and there are some problems with It:
The number of users on domain is more than 500, all have a directory E:\Profiles\%username% created automatically the first time, with a roaming profile in this directory.

I have Cconect.es yet, but It seems I need SQL Server... It's that correct? Where can I find SQL Server? I need install It on clients and server or only on Server?
If this works, the points will be for you, but I doesn't finished...

Why not restrict the user(s) by using User Manager? In User Manager you can restrict the computers a user can login to.

I want that an user can login to ALL clients, but symultaneously only to ONE client. (It must to logoff on client A before to login on client B)
