I'm not sure how to get the user number unique. I do know that the pid is always unique. Is it that you are up against the ol 'at /cron' can only have one thing running at a time ? If that's it then you may have to do some work. What we do here is we have a phantom running as a job.monitor, which process all of our batch jobs. With this there is a whole system of commands (SUBMIT.JOB, CANCEL.JOB, etc...). We have our cron / at jobs log in quick and do a SUBMIT.JOB myjob. This way the cron process works for a second. It basically tells the 'other guy' to do the work. We have been successful with this.
