Remote Desktop Login Priority

If you RDP into their machine with the domain admin account the user doesn't have to interact for you to kick them off their session. When you enter the DA credentials it will ask if you want to log-off the current user.

IMHO you will make someone mad and possibly have data corruption and lost data at their end.
But yes it should work.
But yes it should work.
Well it would only be used when it was necessary. We tried it on a computer where a domain admin was logged in and it asked them if we it was fine for us to connect but then we tried it on a regular user and it asked us if we wanted to boot them off. Therefore my question is how the ranking priority works.
No source for it, just through experience. I'll see if I can dig up a document or two for you on this issue.
Well if you find a source it would probably be better actually. I would rather give the points to a linked source, know what i mean?
