No disconnect warning when multiple remote users use same username and password to logon to VM

I created a single user account to be used by multiple users to access a system consisting of multiple VMs. The problem is that when User #1 has an active session and User #2 attempts to log onto the same VM User #1's session is ended without
warning. Now if User #1 has an active session and User #2 attempts to log onto the same VM using different credentials a [Remote Desktop Connection] dialog displays alerting User #1 that User #2 wants to connect and gives an option to disconnect or stay connected.
Realizing that the latter preferred behavior is because the two Users are using different credentials I would like to know if the same preferred behavior of alerting the Users of active connections can be enabled for instances when both Users are using
the same credentials - perhaps by recognizing that their remote ips are different or something.

not sure if this fits your case exactly. there was another similar question asked in the forum and the solution was:
You may set this via group policy, for example, in the server's local policy using gpedit.msc:
Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates\ Windows Components\ Remote Desktop Services\ Remote Desktop Session Host\ Connections\
Restrict Remote Desktop Services users to a single Remote Desktop Services session     Disabled

    Hi,
    I am beginning to see more threads that suggest that something may be up with the Google Servers.
    In iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts > Server settings tab try changing the port to 443 (With SSL still selected)
    It may be that in a couple of days the Google Servers will get back in sync.

  • I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

  • Resetting username and password, but I have two iPhones using the same username and password. Can I delete the App Store user name on one device without affecting the other phone?

    When we bought our daughter her iPhone I thought it would be a great idea for her to use my username and password for her App Store. As she is learning to download and search off apps, it appears that this May not hand been a good idea as the apps I have on MY iPhone, are showing as already downloaded and on our cloud. I'd prefer to change the username on her device, but in looking I am noticing that I will probably be deleting the username and password on both of our devices and then I will have to reset for both of us. Am I correct?

    If you create an Apple ID for your daughter, signing out of the existing Apple ID with the iTunes & App Store on her iPhone will not change anything on your iPhone.
    All apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
    If she starts using her Apple ID to download apps, when there is an app update for an app on her iPhone that was downloaded with the current shared Apple ID, she will need to use that Apple ID and password to download the app updates.

  • Have same username and password for Apple and iCloud. Main email server is btinternet with different username and password. When I try to share a photo using iCloud email I get message that "email server didn't recognise username/password combo". Help.

    I have the same username and password for my Apple account and iCloud. My main email server is btinternet. When I try to share a photo by sending an email by iCloud I get a message "Server doesn't recognize username/password combination". Do I need to login to iCloud with my btinternet password?

    Hi,
    FMIS 4.5 does not accept plain text password. Encrypt=false is no longer supported. See here for more information : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2926 bcf-7fed.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2926bcf-7e91
    The value for SERVER.ADMIN_PASSWORD needs to be the encrypted string for your password. That should solve your problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you make connection password use single username and password in P/S

    Hi
    I have installed OBIEE as a standalone on a Windows 2003 server using OC4J and AUTHENTICATION_TYPE = BYPASS_NQS.
    I have created a repository using an ODBC connection to a Netezza database. The implementation we have is that we use a single username and password (readonly) to the database.
    I have created the physical, business and presentation layers and the repository is consistent and loadas up into the Presentation Server.
    When I login into presentation server as say "Administrator", the PS passes the username/password of "Administrator" instead of the username and password setup in the connection pool.
    The error is;
    -------------------- Query Status: Query Failed: [nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: HY000 code: 108 message: Password authentication failed for user 'ADMINISTRATOR'.
    When I create a user with the same username and password as the one used in the connection pool, the requests work. Although thisd lets me work at the moment, it is not a viable solution going forward.
    Please can you advise what I need to setup for this to work correctly for me ie., make PS substitute the correct username password when connecting to the ODBC defined in the connection pool?
    Thanks in advance.
    Danish.

    Apologies if I've misunderstood, but are you trying to implement anything than standard practise, namely:
    1) Using the OBIEE security model to authenticate and log in (i.e. when you log in to Answers you are entering a username as defined in the RPD)
    2) Using a fixed username & password as defined on the database to authenticate & authorise when you read data for your reports?
    If you use BYPASS_NQS then BI Server will take your login details when you login to Answers (Presentation Server) and pass them through to the database and see if they're valid. This is what's happening when you got the error that you initially posted. With setting at BYPASS_NQS try logging into Answers with the database username&password, I bet it will work.
    If you use NQS (the default) then it checks the Answers login against users defined in the RPD, so the reason you couldn't login when you changed it to NQS is that the user/pw you logged in with didn't match what's defined in the RPD.
    Try this:
    1. Create a new user & pw in the RPD, for argument's sake call it TestRPDUser with the same pw
    2. Set authentication to NQS and restart you BI Server
    3. Log in to Answers as TestRPDUser - does it work?

  • Using a username and password to access the network

    Dear gents,
    i am trying to make the access to the network via 2 things : SSID's key first , then using a username and password to connect, or at least username and password.
    i have aironet 1130ag , and 40 users.
    Any suggestions..

    SSIDs are unique identifiers that identify a WLAN network. Wireless devices use SSIDs to establish and maintain wireless connectivity. SSIDs are case-sensitive and can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Do not use any spaces or special characters in an SSID.
    A client can gain access to the network only if the client password matches the AP password.

  • Users prompted for username and password after sharing removed from servers

    Hello Community
        On Sharepoint 2010 Server using the UI in a 2 server farm with an intranet running on it and everything functions as it should.  However it was noticed that from a users computer when in "Windows Explorer" if "Network"
    is clicked the 2 servers are visible.
        The problem is that when the server are clicked on in Windows Explorer the files and folders on the hard drive of the servers are visible too.
        Subsequently I logged onto the server and when into "Properties' - "Sharing" and
    unchecked the checkbox to "Share this folder".
        That solved the problem of the users being able to see and access the files
    and folders on servers hard drives but now when the users log onto the intranet
    they are prompted for a user name and password and even when they provide the user
    name and password and the page is returned the prompt appears on the screen again(then they cancel out).
        What can be done about the user being prompted for username and password without sharing the drives on the servers ?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut

    What exactly was shared out from the SharePoint server's file system? There are certain things that are shared by default.

    Every restriction you place on a password reduces the available entropy and therefore makes it easier to crack.However, certain resrictions--such as requiring at least one non-letter, not allowing dictionary words, not allowing it to contain the username, etc., while slightly reducing the average time for a brute force attack, can make other very quick attacks--like a dictionary attack--untenable. So there are some restrictions that are a good idea.I will concede this but it I am not keen on protecting a user from his own stupidity. Since this namby-pamby approach is the industry norm I have to go along with it but I hate it.In some cases you may be protecting your own assets from the user's stupidity, depending on what his account gives him access to.
