Terminal Server allowing multiple sessions for one user
I have seen this on every terminal server I have ever administered. One user having multiple terminal session active at one time. The user will login in the morning and start a session, the connection drops and the user get kicked out. The user then reconnects, but instead and handing off the existing session back to user, the server allows a new session to be created. Now we have 2 sessions open for the same user. I have seen times where it would prompt the user on which session to connect too, but very rare. The end result is that the user could documents and programs open on multiple sessions without realizing it. This causes problems with open file and file locks. How do I get the terminal server to consistently prompt the user to reconnect to the previous session, or just auto-reconnect the user. I am sure this is a very common issue, but I did not find anything in the KB.

I am having this problem also. For one user I renamed her profile and had her logon so it creates a new profile. I would try this first.
This happened to another user today. I just noticed on the AD tab called Terminal Server Priofile, an old home directory was listed. I am going to see if this caused the problem.
