Re: RWW - log off after timeout?



Hi Susan:

A bit late since you already have the two XP Pro workstations, but wouldn't
a TS have made this easier for not a whole lot more money? I know, some
more money, but it could even have been run in a VS on the SBS.

Hi all,

I have 2 PCs setup for users who are out of the office to connect to via
RWW in order to transfer files or whatever, all is working fine, however
sometimes a remote user will "forget" to log off, leaving the machine
locked. I can unlock it by forcing a logoff, but I hate to do this as I
can't tell whether the user is actually active or simply left the session
open - on a couple of occasions I've bumped a user who was in the middle
of something during a time they are not normally logged on, and needless
to say they weren't best pleased.

Is there a way to force a RWW session to log the user off after a set time
of inactivity?

Failing that, is there a way to check if the user is active before bumping
them?

I know this is more of a "training" issue, but some refuse to be trained
<g>

TIA,

SusanV
