Hi

Nothing builtin that can help you here I'm afraid (but I think
Microsoft is going to release something next year that supports this).

The UserLock product in the link below is an option

Microsoft's current solution:

You could install the CCONNECT Microsoft Resource Kit utility onto every
computer, it is in the Win2k Server Resource Kit, Supplement 1 (pay ware, and
you will need a SQL server database as well).

More about CCONNECT here:

Coming from Microsoft is a product called LimitLogin (still in beta):
