Say I logged in computer1 with username A

THen I logged in again as B

Then B will be told that A is logged into the same computer and will be asked if he insist on continue.

If B press Y then

A will get this message

If you allow, you will be disconnected, but you can resume later. Do you want to allow this connection?

According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/280828

If the user clicks No, the remote user will get the message:
<Domain or Computer Name>\<username> is currently logged on this computer, and did not allow you to connect.

If the user clicks Yes or does nothing for a few seconds, the remote user will automatically connect and disconnect the current user logged in.

Now, if A press yes then that's what happen. However, simply waiting a few seconds will not make that happen.

How do we make the remote user to

automatically connect and disconnect the current user logged in.

when A simply does nothing for a few seconds?

Here is how it will work:
XP/XP0Pro/Vista Business

Using RDC to login on any machine with the OS's mentioned above, will cause the user to lose his session. If the local user is logged in with NAME-A and the remote user logs in with NAME-A, he will just take over his session. In other words, he will just pickup his session and see any programs he was running or any documents he had over. The local user can log back in at anytime and regain the session from the remote user.

Win 2003 Server

Using RDC to login to this OS will create a new session. Multiple RDC users can be logged in at once.
