Question AIX 5.3 : Limitation to 1 telnet session for some users

Hi,
I search the way to limit, for a group on a AIX 5.3, one telnet session by user (Simultaneous).
I search a lot in /etc/security but the only way found is with the pam authentication that i not use.
No solution found also in smit menu...

Thanks for your help.
