managing concurrent logons through multiple workstations

Is there GPO that will allow me to manage the number of concurret logons to
multiple workstation?

Is there a way to control the amount of machines a user can log into
concurrently if there is no GPO.

There isn't evey (really) such a setting.

You can specify in AD which COMPUTERS a user
can logon to, but that is a User property and really
doesn't much make sense for a GPO (since that is
applied AFTER a user logs on.)

There is no such animal in Group Policy. Microsoft offers the cconnect
Resource Kit tool but it requires a client component and the use of an SQL
server on the network. I have heard that it can also deny a user access if
their workstation is not shut down correctly. The link below explains more.
Smart card logons could also help as security policy can be configured to
logoff user when smart card is removed from reader and user is required to
use smart card for interactive logon. --- Steve

IMHO, this is the *best* way to manage concurrent logons.

In all the times that this question has been ask, I believe
that is the best answer that I have ever seen.

Of course it means ONE logon but that is usually what
the questioner really wants anyway.
