SYMPTOMS
You use the Win32_ServerSession Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class to monitor server sessions on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer. You expect each returned session instance to point to a unique session when more than one session is open. However, all the returned session instances point to the first entry that the NetSessionEnum function returns.

Note Windows Management Instrumentation uses the NetSessionEnum function to list network sessions.
