Great! So I guess I will probably look at this to check out the actual implementation. If the data store is AD I can forsee a couple of failure points not to mention the fact that if AD Dev thought up to the minute updates of user logon info in AD was a good thing, they probably would have done it when they added lastLogonTimeStamp.

Interesting step if you ask me. You have to modify your schema but the tool is: "Please keep in mind that this tool is Not Supported (similar to a resource kit or support tool)." So after your non reversible (and yes I know about defunct) schema modification if something goes wrong which PSS wont support you can be pretty screwed.

I hope it isn't AD. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Parris Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2005 12:27 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] New AD tool hits the web FYI, Hello, You are receiving this email as you've participated in the LimitLogin beta program. We are happy to announce the availability of LimitLogin v1.0, an application that adds the ability to limit concurrent interactive user logons in an Active Directory domain. It can also keep track of all logins information in Active Directory domains (without necessarily enforcing logons quotas). The challenge of limiting concurrent logons in a distributed environment is huge, and although LimitLogin is not a "bullet proof" solution to all the aspects of this challenge, many customers might still find this tool helpful, as this capability has been highly requested by different customers (banks, ISPs, libraries etc) in numerous RFPs etc. LimitLogin capabilities include: - Limiting the number of logins per user from any machine in the domain, including Terminal Server sessions. - Displaying the logins information of any user in the domain according to a specific criterion (e.g. all the logged-on sessions to a specific client machine or Domain Controller, or all the machines a certain user is currently logged on to). - Easy management and configuration by integrating to the Active Directory MMC snap-ins. - Ability to delete and log off user session remotely straight from the Active Directory Users and Computers MMC snap-in. - Generating Login information reports in CSV (Excel) and XML formats. Please keep in mind that this tool is Not Supported (similar to a resource kit or support tool). The public download location is: <http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/d/0/fd05def7-68a1-4f71-8546-25 c359 cc0842/limitlogin.exe> Please send any feedback and questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> We would like to thank you for taking part in this beta program and helping us to improve the final bits.
