MyWebtop failed login breach....

807578Nov 13 2009
Have configured some user accounts for MyDeskTop. When logging in using the MyDeskTop, and the incorrect user account is entered, and authenticates, it will not initialize as is correct since the user account was not configured for use with MyDeskTop. However, all attempts to log in on that PC from the failed login forward using the ../sgd/mydesktop form, even for a valid and correctly configured user returns the error "Failed to start MyDesktop. Please contact and administrator." At that time, if the url .../sgd (standard login url) is executed, the session logins in without further authentication directly to the failed log in user's webtop. So there are two problems. 1) The failed login does not reset or clear the environment rendering the client device almost unusable, and 2) the failed session can be used for illicit login.

Are there any variables or other configuration that can be set to make the MyDeskTop login process more reliable?
