You can also setup an initialization user exit in the AS/400 telnet server. There is a very good user exit program that you can use on the IBM iSeries web site(on www.iseries.ibm.com searcb for telnet user exit). The setup in the mapping file can be coded with the ip address of your terminal server and using wild card for device name(ACCT*) to use a device name starting with ACCT.

I know that there are limitations you can apply on the 400 but in my case that won't work. I'm running a terminal Server (www.ltsp.org) and so every thing shows that it is coming from that server. anyway if you can think of or know of a way to limit the number sessions running i would be much abliged.

That way only the one session with that name can be running. I have this for my work sessions and for my netshare account from home, as it has the advantage of grabbing the same SQL session too. I don't know how feasible this is for your lts, but it might be worth a try. It does involve setting individual menu options/icons, though (sesion 1, session 2, etc).
