Art,
A few days ago I replied to this thread with a possible solution that
involved using the MPE command 'TELL'. The proposed solution involved the
usage of a command file and a UDC command. I always like to minimize the
number of files that I use in implementing any solution (it simplifies
maintenance) and what follows is an improvement on my original proposal that
eliminates the need of a separate command file.
In your logon UDC enter the following:
...
...
if hpjobtype = "S" then
echo tell &
!hpjobname,!hpuser.!hpaccount Someone is using your signon. >z212z
z212z > $null
if cierror <> 1620 then
echo ****
echo Multiple logons are not allowed..
echo ****
bye
endif
purge z212z,temp > $null
endif
...
...
Regards
Paul H. Christidis

Hi all :)
I can't remember if this one was covered the last time user logon limiting
methodologies were covered... so sorry if I missed the answer.
Using only MPE/iX 5.0 FOS can you restrict a user to only one logon at a
time... ie so Joe.anyacct can only be logged on to one terminal/device at a
time??
Thanks for any help
