Hi,

hi, dogan,

if i give that way only one session will be activated. i have multiple users . everyone should be able to login simultaneously with different usernames and passwords. but a person should not be able to login with the same username and password multiple times simultaneously

You can try  "user-maxlinks".

username xx  user-maxlinks 1  password yy
