Current user shown as (disconnected)

Hi:

I have users working remotely through VPN, using remote desktop. Today I saw for the first time the status (disconnected) next to the domain/user name.

Maybe the user lost connection to the VPN?

Would you mind explaining to me when this status is shown?

 

Thank you very much.

 

Mr.Clinker.

    Gerardo,

    I'm pretty sure the "disconnected" status just means the user is signed in but has locked their session so they are not actively working in it.

    Did you ever find an answer to this? I have a machine that shows the current user in the disconnected state and I cannot deploy a package to them. lnichols, typically if a have a workstation that is locked, the current user shows username(locked). I'm curious what logic determines a user is disconnected.

    I'd think that a disconnected session was established over RDP.  I see the same thing in VDI machines.  You can run a command to log users out of disconnected sessions.  Locked would be logged in locally.
