Disable multiple ssh logins for an OS user in Solaris

Hi folks,
I am fairly a beginner when it comes to Solaris OS administration, but part of my job somehow has scope to provide L1-level of OS administration over a few solaris servers.

Now, we have a requirement to limit the number of simultaneous ssh logins/sessions to the server, sort of similar to a windows server where an OS windows account can only be used one at a time, so if another colleague logged in to that same windows server, my current RDP session will be cut off.

Is there any way to do the same for a solaris server? My servers are on SunOS 5.11 11.3 sun4v sparc.

I've done some googling and I see the files "/etc/limits" and "/etc/security/limits.conf" being mentioned but I don't have those in my server.

Any input from the community will be very much appreciated.

NAME
nwpjvm - Move print job to Unix queue SYNOPSIS
nwpjmv [ -S server ] [ -h ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -q queue name ] [ -c command ] [ -j job number ] [ -d ] DESCRIPTION
nwpjmv is a program that connects to print queues on NetWare servers and moves a designated print job to a Unix queue. OPTIONS
-h -h is used to print out a short help text. -S server server is the name of the server you want to use. -U user user is the print server name at the server. -P password password is the password to use for the print server at the server. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, pserver prompts for a password. -n -n should be given if the print server does not require a password. -C By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C. -q queue name queue name is the name of the print queue you want to service. -c command nwpjmv removes the designated job from the Novell queue and feeds the job file to stdin. command is the printing command that is exe- cuted for each job. The default command is 'lpr'. You can insert several flags into the command, preceded by %. These are replaced with values retrieved from the queue structure for the print job. %u: This field will be replaced by the name of the user who posted this print job. %d: This field will be replaced by the job description field of this print job. -j job number This designates the ID number of the print job to be moved. -d causes extra error messages to be logged.
