You can limit them to 1 session easily, without Temp files and 3rd party
programs, and this works for us.
We have a system udc which does a TELL to the person logging on, and
depending
on the error message received, allows them on, or sends them to a Multi
Logon
Verification and Authorization command file.
This file locks their PC screen until they enter a "release" code form
Operations, or type BYE to sign off. If this is not a ligitimate logon. the
real person logged on gets a message.
We allow some individuals and some entire accounts such as SYS,
PROG(ramming),
etc to log on multiple times by putting a file in a group called MLOGON with
their logon name or account name as the filename. This requires unique
logon
names, but so does our security.
The code is as follows. If it is not understandable, contact me.
:print sysudc.udc.sys

If we give them a "release" code, they can logon as many times as we allow
them
to. The code for us to generate the release code is:
USER DEFINED COMMAND FILE: RELCODE.CMD
ECHO THE RELEASE CODE FOR FREEING A TERMINAL IS:
ECHO ![!HPMONTH*!HPHOUR*(!HPMINUTE/2+1)*!HPDAY*!HPDATE*69]
ECHO ------------
If you need to allow them exactly 2, then you will have to use one of the
"user
list to a file" suggestions.

My Thoughts, My Fault. Don't blame anyone else, cause they have no idea
what I am thinking. Good thing too.
