Is there a way to automaticly Logoff the user instead of just Disconnecting it when closing the TS Client window?

Greatful for answer

If the user clicks the X to close the Window then it will always diconnect the session instead of a Logoff.

You could set the Disconnect timeout to 1 minute in The "Terminal Server Connection Configuration". This will logoff a user who has been disconnected for 1 or more minutes.

We had a problem with users clicking the X to disconnect their sessions instead of using the logoff procedure. This caused problems when they tried to log back on. They would have no taskbar, etc. Of course, this generated many calls to the IT dept. To solve this, I edited the Advanced Connection Settings to reset on a broken or timed out connection. This takes care of the problem immediately and I don't get those calls anymore.
