Doug,

This is the solution we're leaning towards at the moment. Althogh not
perfect because the same user could signon to different terminals on the
same port and be counted as one, it does get us as close as we can come at
the moment. If I get three or four sesssions (same user) on the same port,
I'll count that as 2 signons. Not perfect, but close.

Different user profiles are diffent users to me.

from a

users?
