On the server you have code that tracks who is logged in. In Flex, when a user logs in, you end the first session when a second active session is started for that user. In Flex, ping the server every so often to check whether or not you need to kick the Flex user off due to this policy violation rule. Show a message like "a second active logon has been detected, so you have been logged out." This isn't a trivial feature to implement. Maybe a first step would be to log more data so you know how common the problem is. It might turn out to be a minor issue that isn't worth dealing with, or an issue that can be handled differently, such as by reminding suspected violators of the rules via an E-mail.
