Have an admin log on to the server and use Terminal Services Manager to view current sessions, and close down any dead or orphan sessions that may have been caused by people disconnecting without logging off properly first.

I have been trying to talk (email, telephone messages) with the admin person since Sunday. He won't return calls/emails. So I don't know what it is. But the customer (users) need help and I am trying all that I can to connect. I suppose I will wait another day before deleting anything in my registry. Thank you.
