I have a Visual Foxpro  app that uses files on a networked drive. This app is made available to remote users in a free 2-user Winflector Server machine.  When a remote user runs this shared app, the app exe process appears in the task manager's process list in the Winflector Server machine (call this machine A), and because the app uses the networked files, the app process appears in an active sessions list in the Windows Server machine [call this machine B] (i see it in the windows server machine's Computer Management>Shared Folders>Sessions GUI).  

when the remote user logs off from the winflector client, the app disappears from Machine A's task manager's process list, but remains in Machine B's active sessions list. anything i can do to make sure the app disappears from Machine B's active sessions list ?? anything in winflector server that can help me debug what's going on?

i am using Winflector Server 3.9.4.0a for machine A, and Windows 2000 for Machine B (where the networked files are, and our windows server license allows only for a limited number of concurrent sessions, so app session clean up is very important)

 

Thanks for any help!

I am not sure why sessions are still active on machine B. The only explanation is that users disconnect from application using X icon instead of File/Exit or something like that. In such a case server can kill application, so it has no chance to properly log off from the 'B' server. Maybe it would be possible to configure Windows server 'B' to automatically disconnect sessions due to inactivity period?

We have to test such a situation in our laboratory.

Tell me the way how  network disks from server 'B' are mounted on Winflector server machine?

We have found an article how to remove inactive Windows sessions:

I hope this helps.
