Replying to myself, apparently not.

From authpf.c:
173         /*
174          * If someone else is already using this ip, then this person
175          * wants to switch users - so kill the old process and exit
176          * as well.
177          *

From what I understand, authpf assumes that one user equals one IP, right?

Wouldn't it be legitimate to consider NATed machines as well, and identify 
connections with the couple (user_ip, user_id) rather than with the only 
user_ip?
