Hi there.

I have set idle, disconected and active session limits for all users,
but it affects Administrator too. What can i do to avoid Administrator
to get logged off as all other users?

I'll apreciate very much if you could help me on this one, as i can't
figure it out after many google searches!

Thanks in advance.
 
Re: Idle session limits for all users except for administrator

What is the Windows version of Terminal Services are you running?

This setting is available per user, you can try lusrmgr.msc, double click a
user, select the sessions tab.
Thanks
Soo Kuan

The problem is that i don't have the terminal server users in a OU,
so i would have to do that manually, there are a lot of users here :/


Thank you for your input.

Re: Idle session limits for all users except for administrator

I see, if you have many users, using TSUSEREx may be a bit too much work.
The session limit is per winstation/connection setting. One way you can try
is to add another nic card to your server, create another rdp-Tcp connection
for admin use only, and ask the admin to connect to the new rdp-tcp
connection/winstation.

Thanks

Re: Idle session limits for all users except for administrator

I created a GPO that set no limit for the admin linked to the domain,
but that GPO don't override the rdp-tcp session limits. How can i
configure a GPO to override whatever is set on the rdp-tcp connection
settings?
