HDI,
the setting "Restrict Terminal Services Users to a single session" should
be available. (Terminal Services Configuration ) click on the tree view node
"Server settings", and on the right pane you should be able to see it.
Please let us know what is the attribute for that setting.

By the way, what server OS version are you running?
Thanks
Soo Kuan

OK, last thing I can think of: check the "Maximum connections"
setting on the Network Adapter, in Terminal Services Configuration
- tcp-rdp connection.

unlimited

And what's the setting for
"Restrict Terminal Services Users to a single session"
in
Terminal Services Configuration - Server settings

Not listed

or in your GPO, in:
Computer Configuration - Administrative templates - Windows
Components - Terminal Services

not configured

OK, if you take over the existing session, then you are
probably connecting to the console (either with mstsc /console,
or with the Remote Desktops utility from the Resource Kit).
There can only be a single console session.

No, when I see in the TS manager I see administrator on console
and administrator on session.


Are you using the same, or a different user account when trying
to establish the second connection?

Tried both.

Have you checked in TS Manager?
Yes only 1, the active one

The other session is probably still there, but disconnected.
no

To avoid this, configure a time-out on disconnected and idle
sessions and have the session reset when the time-out is
exceeded.
Done

It is on both our Terminal servers, the others are ok.

On terminal server only 1 available, other 2 available.

Others I receive a message when third is requested (the ts
has axceeded the max mumber of allowwed connections),
terminal servers just take over the session.
