Only allowing a certain computer to connect isn't possible and wouldn't work if you could as you can have multiple sessions from the same computer to the TS. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
There may be a fiddly hack around this but in terms of audting, security and best practices, you should give each consultant a serpate logon.<br />

We are running windows 2003 terminal server application server hosting one application.. WE ARE USING PER COMPUTER LICENSING.<br />
<br />
We now have consultants needing to use the terminal server. Do to licensing we can only let them have ONE license to use. What we are needing is to make sure that only one person in the consultants office will use our terminal server. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Is there a way to only allow a certain computer to connect to the terminal server? Or an ID can only logon to terminal server from a specific PC?<br />
<br />
I've tried only allowing certain computers access but the terminal server goes by USER ID. So it doesn't matter if I only allow certain computers. &nbsp;The consultants have one ID on our domain they would use to access the terminal server. <br />
<br />
We can't block it by IP because they are accessing us with VPN that uses DHCP. <br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Windows 2003 Terminal Server. Only allow a specific PC access to terminal server.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
