Are you asking how to limit the number of times a user can logon to a particular box?

If so, I believe that there is. I will have to lookup what file you need to create. Probably a file in /etc to configure it.


On HPUX, there is a file called /etc/sw-limit-login that can allow you to regulate users logins.

Of course, your version of UNIX may be different. Hope that gives you some info.
