This should be fairly easy to implement in your application. You should simply establish a logged-in user counter of some sort, perhaps increment/decrement a field in your database, and make your login JSP/servlet check that counter as part of the login process. You can then deliver a custom message to the user when he/she attempts to login when the number of users has reached your pre-set limit. You can even set the limit as in the web.xml, e.g. <init-param> <param-name>userLimit</param-name> <param-value>50</param-value> </init-param> so that you can easily change it at a later stage.
