The obvious first thing to try on the problem station is to see if its CONFIG.FPW does not have the statement EXCLUSIVE=OFF, and that each private datasession is setting the EXCLUSIVE mode to off in the Load event of the form.report; SET EXCLUSIVE is scoped to the datasession.

The next thing to check is to ensure that the station does not try to share it resource (FOXUSER) file with any other station; you can specify a specific file to use through the station's CONFIG.FPW, you can turn off the use of the resource file entirely by issuing a RESOURCE-OFF in CONFIG.FPW, or you can flag the shared CONFIG.FPW as read-only, so that no station tries to gain exclusive access to it. The correct approach should be determined by how your app uses informaton from CONFIG.FPW - I usually opt for a CONFIG.FPW per station, so that hardware-specific s are tuned to the local system; the CONFIG.FPW is read-only, I have RESOURCE=OFF in my CONFIG.FPW, and make a copy of the main CONFIG file as part of my startuop, to avoid problems if someone starts the same app twice on the same gox.
