I'm thinking there's gotta be one last "desperation call" to a stored procedure with the person's key in an attempt to "unlock this dude's record" but of course, if you've lost connection to the database (and it can't reconnect), I'm guessing that user would have to call the HelpDesk to say "hey, I can't get back in after this crash."

Sounds reasonable, but how does the "/...in the event of a crash the

That seems like the most logical way to easily accomplish the "only allow unique logins" scenario. Thanks for the tip.
