Hi,

My company is using MFG/PRO eb2 sp3. Users are using netterm to connect application.We are facing problem like user open multiple screen using same login.

Can anyone tell how to enforce single user logon ?:)

Thank you
 
You can use 36.3.24

Time out minutes
Enforce licensed user count

They help to reduce multiple logins. but you cant enforce it.

36.16.10.13. will help you report misuse to top management by user.
 
Hi Kishor Chari,

Thanks for the prompt response. We done that already but It doesn't help ,cause people tense to use multiple login as they think is more conevience to them without concern on the license issue.

Is there anything that can detect login ID kick the older login ID out from the System

This doesnt work -> 36.16.10.13. will help you report misuse to top management by user ??

OK mail me on my email I will do something clever and give it to you.
 
Hi,
"Can you enforce OS user id?Makes easy for my program. " ?
Sorry did you mean control user base on their windows logon ?

note: the MFG/PRO eb2 sp3 is running on linux & we using license base on connection
 
Hi,
You need to do scripting to control user from login. I suggest you create a file where in you will list the user who can do multi login. If you require all of them to be a single login, just create the file.

You will check if the user id in the file you have created does not exist then your script will not allow him to pass through the database. In doing this, you need to have the menu where in you will put the validation before going through MFG/PRO.

JING
 
I use this in my client startscript (Linux box):

LIMIT=2
COUNT=`who | grep $LOGNAME | wc -l | awk '{print $1}'`

# If the user has more then $LIMIT sessions open, kick him/her out immediately
if [ "$COUNT" -gt "$LIMIT" ]
then
echo "`date +%y%m%d-%H%M` Login refused for $LOGNAME, limit $LIMIT" >> $LOGFILE
exit 1
fi

Hope it helps.

Dear Nelson,
Which distribution of linux you are using?
If you use RedHat / Fedora / PLD etc... you can use "Limits" done by Linux.
Try to find /etc/security/limits.conf ....

Hi all,

Sorry to tell you that it doesn't prevent ppl from login > than 1 session.

/etc/security/limits.conf
@test hard maxlogins 1

there is 1 testuser inside group test.

Server had restarted but still it wont stop ppl from having more than1 session to the linux server xD
 
Hi, The 1st login allow you to login to the linux's menu.sh before you can login into MFG/PRO. I 'm was hoping by limit number of netterm session to the linux prior to the MFG/PRO system would help. Thanks
