Both RDP sessions are in use. How can i free one up?

[glamprecht1]

I seem to run in to this quite frequently.

We have several people in our IT department that RDP into multiple servers. There are many times when a user disconnects and does not log off and then no one else can RDP into that server until I walk up to the server and physically log in to free up sessions.

Is there a way that I can do this remotely?

Thanks in advance for any input.

You can set in the users permissions an idle time so it will log them off when the limit is reached

If its windows 2003 you can connect to the console session and kick anyone who is logged on off.



mstsc X.x.x.x v:/console

Are you running AD? If so you can there or under TS configuration.

should have a session manager for a rdp server, and then you can just kick anyone off that you want, or reset their connection, or take over their session....
