RE: Login Same User on Multiple Machines from just one machine

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Thanks Again,

The irony of this is that the goal is to improve security and traceability
by making it easier for an operator responsible for multiple machines to
login and logoff so that changes made by that operator can be more easily
tracked and with a greater certainty that the operator logged in to the
machine is the one doing things on it. These systems can track operator
actions and tightly control what each user can do within the system. However,
I too fear that this could open security holes in an environment where
security is paramount.
