Windows 2000 Small Business Server
With Windows XP Pro Workstations

I am using roaming profiles and folder redirections. I want to restrict
individual users to only one (1) login on one PC at any given time (no
simultaneous logins by any given user). However, I want the Admin users
to have multiple simultaneous logins possible.

Do I simply put a script (see below) in each user's login profile and
omit it from the Admin users? Any caveats? Any better suggestions?

Thanks.
Fred

All users have their "own" desks with their "own" computers. However,
different employees have different work schedules and almost daily have
to spend a couple hours at another desk/computer. To avoid multiple
access issues, which version is the latest, and file corruption issues
which may result from multiple simultaneous logins by any given user, I
want to force each user to log out of one computer before they can login
to another computer. Each user, except admins, because admins wouldn't
be working on user documents, we would be doing system updates/upgrades,
etc.

Using either method especified before you can limit the logins. Choose what
best suits in your environment.
