Not only ftp "sessions" count, but any tcp/ip port connections count also.
That could account for the extra 4 sessions.

Subject: User Limits


I know there has been some discussion about this before but I have been
unable to find answers in the Archives.

Maybe someone can help.  We have a system with a user limit of 100 users
configured. We have a problem that many users who used to have one
session on a terminal, now have a PC and use multiple sessions (quite
legitimately). However, we sometimes reach the limit where at 96
sessions shown, it doesn't allow any more sessions to log on.

What I would like to know :

 1. I know there is a reason that only 96 instead of 100 sessions can be
logged on but I forget why.

 2. How can I tell which users haven't used their terminals for , say 8
hours, although they have left them on?

 3. Is there anything in the Contributed Library etc that anyone can
recommend?

 4. Does the CITIMEOUT in the coniguration work as advertised or can it
lead to problems?

 5. How can you tell which users have been logged on for over a week?

TIA,

Cheers,

John Dunlop
