There is computer A. There
is computer B. There is a
computer C.
B is common. Anyone can connect to it via RDP. In this case, each subsequent "throws out" the previous one. How to find out if B is currently busy with someone?

On computer B, create a personal account for each connecting user. When connecting via RDP, the system will report something like "The computer is currently occupied by another user, continue connecting?"

Check via powershell or cmd for an active rdp session. Through the scheduler, unload this information from the machine somewhere where it can be viewed from other stations.
I think it is possible from the client side, if you have rdp credentials, to parse the error code of the rdp protocol when trying to connect.

put B rdpwrap into the system ... then it will become a full-fledged terminal server (everything is license-free) ... and each next user will not throw out the previous one, and all users will be able to work in parallel each in their session ... well, then check who is in system by conventional means ... for example sysinternals process explorer
