This is mainly because Netware does not warn you if you have other connections to the server, which makes it easy to forget when you have logged in elsewhere. Ideally we would like one of two situations: 1. Users who are logged in elsewhere are reminded of this when they log in for the second time. They are given the opportunity to 'bump' their other connection off the system. 2. Users are able to log in elsewhere, but an inactivity timeout is set to log out inactive stations. We wouldn't like to force the hand of people who have important uses for multiple connections, but it would be nice to be able to set one of the above on some of the user accounts on our system. Anyone out there found a solution?
