Re: Windows 2000 TS, restricting users to 1 session

Reconnect works as well on 2000 as 2003 in my experience. The only difference really is that 2003 will automatically attempt to connect you to a session that is in the Active state (if restrict to one session is set). I say attempt because in certain circumstances it will not be able to connect to the session in which case a new session will be created just like 2000 would do.

No, the SingleUser app doesn't help you there. It simply disallows
a user to create a second TS session (by creating a lock file in
the user's home directory).
Reconnection to broken connections doesn't work very well (if at
all) in W2K.
