Allow users to disconnect selected devices used by other users - feature?

Hello,

I am evaluating VH for our local Police Department and I need some help regarding device disconnection / usage.

As i understand it is possible to disconnect devices used by other users when I start the client via the -a option in admin mode. That's fine for one admin but not for the "normal" user in our scenario.

We have several USB devices (license dongles) we don't want to be disconnected by users because the corresponding software would stop working which is not an option.
However we have several devices every user may connect to as needed, no problem if someone steals a device from another user.

It would be great to have an option in the server ini file that allows to configure user disconnection by other users per device, maybe based on the nickname or VID or whatever. I know that other USB sharing software provides such a feature (checkbox for this very option) and it would be great to have it in your software.

So what I would like to see is an option to allow disconnection by other users not based on client rights but based on a server configuration for every device which is bonnected to the server. Another option could be to start every client in -a mode and "lock" the disconnection feature for a particular device, rather than to allow it for "non -a" clients.

I hope you understand what I mean and apologies if there's already such a feature and I simply did not find it ;)

Thanks in advance
