Description

 User sees error:"The user is already logged in"

SDMS sessions that fail to authenticate Windows users will use the fallback authentication to authenticate against SDMS.If more than one user is using the fallback authentication, then the user sees the error "the user is already logged in" because by default there can be only one fall back session. This default has been changed to allow 200 fall back sessions with 12.7 and newer versions of Statistica.
