Remarks
The Terminal Server feature supports Plug and Play (PnP) device redirection. Device redirection determines whether a device can be accessed by applications and services within all Terminal Services sessions or whether a device can be accessed only within a particular Terminal Services session. The accessibility of a device within a Terminal Services session is determined by the setting of DEVPKEY_Device_SessionId for a device, as follows:
If the DEVPKEY_Device_SessionId property does not exist, or the property exists, but the value of the property is not set, the device can be accessed in all active Terminal Services sessions.
If the DEVPKEY_Device_SessionId property exists and the value of the property is set to a nonzero Terminal Services l session identifier, the device can be accessed only in the Terminal Services session indicated by the Terminal Services session identifier.
If the DEVPKEY_Device_SessionId property exists and the value of the property is set to zero, the device can be accessed only by services. Session zero is a special session in which only services can run.
You can access the DEVPKEY_Device_SessionId property by calling SetupDiGetDeviceProperty and SetupDiSetDeviceProperty.
Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000 do not support this property.
