Closig Sessions
Hi,

I wonder if anyone could help me.

At a client we are using XP as a print server, this seems fine, the only thing is the printer driver logs the user on a guest, and after the print he does not get logged off again. (If you're wondering what I'm talking about, R/Click My Computer, and go to manage, go to shares, and sessions.) Once I manually disconnect these sessions, everything works perfectly, however leaving them there comes up with an error saying no ore connections to this computer allowed.

Is there a way of "Automatically" disconnecting sessions in idle for a period? Either standard method, or even 3rd party software welcome, I just want to sort this out.

See it's a small company, about 20 users, and this computer is only used as a print server, nothing else, so buying a server o/s will not be a suffecient answer, the only other thing I can think of is going back to 98, which I'm not too happy with because that will mean downgrading.


Thank you.

MS is overrated, and overpriced in anycase.
Cheers
