Route RDP connections based on username

We have 7 RDP servers named server1, server2, etc.
Users can connect to only one of the seven servers because their data is only stored on that server. It happens sometime that we move a user to another server and that they need to adjust their connection settings.

We don't want our users to connect to a specific server but instead let them connect to a sort of gateway server that redirects them to the right server based on their username.

Is this possible? And if yes: what do we need?

Not in my realm of expertise but couldn't you setup dfs so all users could use any server?

No, I don't want all the data on all of our servers.
Is there any reason why you're not using terminal services profiles, instead of storing user data on your servers?
Yes, we have enough reasons for not using roaming profiles.
use terminalserver gateway and set the ad-group in policy (it's an connection policy) which user can connect server. this works also with sessionbroker
Would you please explain this a little more?

Thank you, but unfortunately the Mac version of remote desktop doesn't support ts gateway.
I guess we'll have to wait until ms brings out a new version.
Mac remote desktop won't support this solution.
