Re: Multiple Login in a single PC should not be possible

You lost me on that one. You want it so that multiple users can log in, but they have to be on separate browsers? Karl On May 14, 2010, at 3:26 AM, Jagdeep Singh wrote:

Hi, yes, I can make a databse table to record LOGIN details, But I want that No other user can login on same machine on smae or another browser. E.g. If user1 has logged in from IE then user2 should not login from Firefox or Chrome etc.. I need ONLY ONE USER ACCESS AT SAME TIME ON SAME MACHINE (On Same or Other broswers) Regards Jagdeep Singh On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 1:26 PM, Peter Lind <peter.e.lind@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi All! I am looking for a solution, I want a user to do a single Login only on

a

PC . E.g. If a User has logged on my website website.com in Internet

explorer,

then he cant login on same website in another browser like Firefox etc with same loginid or another. Can I trace MAC address of a single machine to solve this issue?

The browser IP address works for us quite reliably. Once logged in, you

get

a message saying already logged on ... and where ... but it does need a little help if the user closes the browser without logging out. One needs

a

facility to 'bounce' a user now and again .... however some remote users

may

well have 'floating' IP addresses :(

Don't rely on IP addresses staying the same for a user, it's not safe in any way and not needed anyway. Karls method is probably the best bet - just remember to record "last accessed time" so anyone not accessing for more than 15-20 minutes will succeed if trying to log in again.
