Connect to multiple different users on the same terminal server

We've frequently ran into the need to be able to have different technicians connect to different "guest" sessions on the same terminal server at the same time. Currently we fight over whose already in a machine.

Duplicates 3
Ability to have multiple technicians remote into different sessions on the same machine without interfering with the other technician

Unfortunately the only way to choose a logon session is to join a session > click the view icon on the admin bar > select the session under select login session.


Doing this while another user is on a session will cause both technicians to select the same session.

There is not a good way of doing this so I recommend adding a feature request at the link below to be able to select logon sessions before joining the session and the ability to have multiple technicians remote into different sessions on the same machine without interfering with the other technician

Feature request - product.screenconnect.com

Add the ability to have Separate sessions to the same server.

Currently if a user is logged in and I try to connect to the same server I jump into his session. It would be nice to have the option to connect to his session or start my own.

Two unattended access sessions on single server

Currently only one unattended access sessions is possible to a windows server. We would like to have 2 and possibly more access sessions on a single server. This way we wouldn't have to have multiple servers to this purpose on a single customer.

It is possible to have two access sessions on a single server.

Is that what you needed? If not, could you please explain further?

Do you want both (all) of those sessions to share the same content or do you want them to each be able to interact independently?

Yes, we want to have own desktop for every session.

Then you'll need to use the Remote Desktop/Terminal services role from Microsoft and then clients connect via the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) instead of via ScreenConnect.

Yes, that is also possible but we want to use screenconnect. This way the customer connects to our site not vise versa.

I know these are kind of cross-connected: http://product.screenconnect.com/topics/171-two-unattended-access-sessions-on-single-server/, but is there any update on this feature? Getting tired of battling between different hosts on the same server:
