If the second user is already logged into Guacamole, has access to the original connection, and manually chooses that connection (instead of the temporary shared version with the "Shared by" tag created by using a share link), they will not be connected through Guacamole's sharing functionality, and will be subject to RDP's restrictions on session management. To be clear, there is nothing within Guacamole which forces disconnection of one user when another connects. If this is occurring, then Guacamole's sharing must not be being used, and it must be the RDP server forcing that disconnect. - Mike
