RE: [U2] U2 u2lic.dll
Wow. I don't see a way to fix the regular method of getting at the IP; it for sure sounds like 7.2 broke it. Could you code around it? Execute a little program at Login that considers the number of connections in the specific account? Write their WHO info to a file, and make each connection obtain a token. Set the number of tokens at your ceiling for that account. When the tokens run out, they have to wait. You have the inherent security of hashed files not being accessible from *nix or *dos so they couldn't easily hack this. Regular login credentials must first validate anyway, so you'll know who didn't get a token when they wanted to login provides a sales opportunity.

Re: [U2] U2 u2lic.dll
Baker: Thanks. For the most part, everyone who logs onto our application creates a LOGIN record with various bits of information in it (including that pesky IP address). I guess I could re-engineer it to track the number of times a user is logged in. We'll see. I guess that's my only solution. So much for making stuff that just plain works. :-) Bill __ From: Baker Hughes baker.hug...@mouser.com Sent: 4/27/2009 2:41 PM To: 'u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org' u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] U2 u2lic.dll Wow.
