Difficult to Determine Who Is Connected to a Terminal Server

APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q187139

SYMPTOMS

When you connect a network client to a Terminal Server, the title bar in the network client window includes the Terminal Server name you are connected to. When multiple connections exist, you can locate each of them by looking at the title bars. However, it may not be easy to determine from your multiple client windows which user is connected on each server.

CAUSE

The username information is not available to the client software. Also, the title is rearranged to show the server name first, so, if you connect to different servers, you can locate the correct one using the server name.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
