Should I restart someting to make it work?
Hmmm... I use it with success on a web hosting box that has this line in /etc/security/limits.conf: @webmastr - maxlogins 2 "webmastr" is an /etc/group entry. Works for me (for SSH connections and logins on the physical console, tested). I use TSL 2.2. I'd try replacing "hard" by "-" first, because "hard" doesn't apply for a login limit. Don't think that the "*" vs. "@group" would change a thing... Are you sure that there's not another line overriding your rule? Greets, _A_
