This is a bit tricky.. I would create a table to be able to mark a user as "online" maybe with the IP adress. Then you can check this on login and lock the login if already logged in from another IP. If you want an automatic logout on computer 1 you need to track what session(id)s a user has with the IP adress and simply delete the session(s) that no not belong to the current IP. But you have to implement everything yourself as it's not part of LiveUser. > 2. > As a security measure I want to log successful and unsuccessful > logins/logouts to a mysql table (handle, date/time, ip, event).

You need to create a table and "manually" insert records on submit of the login form. I don't know of any way to automatically do this using Log/Event_Dispatcher. regards, Matthias
