Allow reconnection from original client only

Requirements: At least Microsoft Windows XP Terminal Services

Location: User Configuration\Windows Components\Terminal Services\Sessions\


Description:
Directs Terminal Services to allow users to reconnect to disconnected sessions only from the original client computer.

Use this setting to prevent Terminal Services users from reconnecting to disconnected sessions from computers other than the client computer from which they originally created the session. By default, Terminal Services allows users to reconnect to disconnected sessions from any client computer.

If you enable this setting, Terminal Services users can reconnect to disconnected sessions only from the original client computer. If a user attempts to connect to the disconnected session from another client computer, a new session is created instead.

If you disable this setting, users can always connect to disconnected sessions from any client computer.

If you do not configure this setting, session reconnection from the original computer is not specified at the Group Policy level.
