Hi all,
since we've started to allow telnet sessions to our HP3000, our licence limit
of
160 concurrent users is regularly being reached.

With HP wanting about 20,000 sterling to increase the licence to 256
concurrent,
I'm having to look at different ways to regulate multi-logons.

I have bouncer running and aborting sessions after periods of inactivity, but I
think the way forward is to refuse a login if there are already two sessions
active at the same workstation, for example.

What I need is to be able to get the IP address of the workstation from within
MPE.

I could just look up the session,username.account in a showjob and use that as
a
reference, but we have some people that sign more than one terminal
legitimately.

We run the Reflection software from WRQ as our telnet/comms software.

Any help on this problem would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
