Presumably, Aquaconnect spawns multiple user sessions via some display functionality, but the actual user session on the server is still identical to a single user logon at the physical server. no?

That is, a new user logging on to the server via Aquaconnect, still automagically gets a "default" home folder on that server, created in /Users/

If that is the case, then any admin user can modify the /System/Library/User\ Template/<language>.proj/Library/Preferences/ directory. That takes care of any new user accounts that are created on the server for remote sessions.
Then you can copy the MCX file to existing user's home folders on the server and change privs for that preference file as needed via a script 'er something?

As I recall, Aquaconnect was positioned as the Mac equivalent to RDC on the PC. If that is the case, then user sessions are spawned on the server

rt-clean-sessions(8)					     Request Tracker Reference					      rt-clean-sessions(8)

NAME

       rt-clean-sessions - clean old and duplicate RT sessions

SYNOPSIS

	    rt-clean-sessions [--debug] [--older <NUM>[H|D|M|Y]]

	    rt-clean-sessions
	    rt-clean-sessions --debug
	    rt-clean-sessions --older 10D
	    rt-clean-sessions --debug --older 1M
	    rt-clean-sessions --older 10D --skip-user

DESCRIPTION

       Script cleans RT sessions from DB or dir with sessions data.  Leaves in DB only one session per RT user and sessions that aren't older than
       specified(see options).

       Script is safe because data in the sessions is temporary and can be deleted.

OPTIONS

       older
	   Date interval in the "<NUM>[<unit>]" format. Default unit is D(ays), H(our), M(onth) and Y(ear) are also supported.

	   For example: "rt-clean-sessions --older 1M" would delete all sessions that are older than 1 month.

       skip-user
	   By default only one session per user left in the DB, so users that have sessions on multiple computers or in different browsers will be
	   logged out.	Use this option to avoid this.

       debug
	   Turn on debug output.

NOTES

       Functionality similar to this is implemented in html/Elements/SetupSessionCookie ; however, that does not guarantee that a session will be
       removed from disk and database soon after the timeout expires.  This script, if run from a cron job, will ensure that the timed out
       sessions are actually removed from disk; the Mason component just ensures that the old sessions are not reusable before the cron job gets
       to them.
