In windows server 2003 is it possible to make Single instance of login for all staff users, who have roaming profiles.
If the staff user has logged in from one location, s/he cannot login again from another location without logging out first.
any idea where to configure ??
thanks

    Okay. I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding your question. Are you saying you want one profile which will be used by all of your staff members, or are you asking how to make it so that each profile can only be loaded at one station at a time?

    The way I read it is that he wants it so that each profile can only be loaded at one station at a time, hince the single instance of login.

    But sorry, I don't know the answer to the question... :sad2:

    Yes Sir I mean that.
    i.e. Single instance of login, for all users who have roaming profiles

    I suppose there is no such option in windows 2003 server.(in my opinion.)
    any help will be appreciated.
    Thankyou

    I believe there is an option to control it through Group Policy. I can't remember the exact setting but if you look through it you should be able to find it.

    I'm not 100% sure there is an option to do exactly what you want. However I do know that there are GPO's that control logins, profiles and when/what machines someone can log into. If what you are looking for isn't in GPO then it's not possible.

    Yes kryyst ,from my side i'm confirmed that there's no such option in GPO.
    I guess you have to check the login instance through logon scripts if found already logged in, LOG OFF the user using scripts.
    still searching for the script.
    does any body have such script or can any one write ?? :p
    my requirement is
    ======
    check if the user with roaming profile is already logged in to the DC.
    If True, give him message "Already logged in from another place " and LOG him OFF.

    thanks in advance

    Seems a bit fiddly, but should be what you're looking for.
