How about this... You can check with RQL if a user is logged in using
the following:
<IODATA loginguid="[!guid_login!]">
<ADMINISTRATION>
<USERS userguid="[!guid_user!]" action="connectlist"/>
</ADMINISTRATION>
</IODATA>
You can get the user guid from the database as I mentioned in my prior
post. In your response XML, you will find the login guid if the user
is logged in. You can then retrieve the session variable or log the
user out before logging in.
