Limiting users to logging on to one workstation at a time

hi..

I just tried installing Limitlogin in our 2K3 server, it took me a week to
install the IIS and AD modules, after some reading in posts like this i think
i installed it right becouse at the end it tells me that it was installed
successfully. Any way my problem is the 3rd module
"limitloginclientsetup.msi".
Everytime i install it to a work station under my Domain with administrative
rights it says that i should install ".net frameworks ver 1.1.4322", and it
gives me an option to download it from the internet. So for the sake of
completing the task i gave an internet conection to that computer with a
security right to download (but not all computer should have internet
connection in our domain). The version of 1.1.4322 was not available anymore
so i downloaded and install the 3.5 version. After that i restarted the cpu
and tried to install again the limitloginclient and still it gave me the same
message "to install .net frameworks 1.1.4322.
I have been tring to solve for a 2 days now but it puts me in a loop, i
always comes back to "install .net frameworks 1.1.4322. This utility would
be a great help to me by limiting only 1 login name per user to be use in my
network.

Please help.

Thanks in advance

Instead of using limitlogon, which is an immense pain in the a**, try this:
