user session restriction

I want to restrict user's loging according to number of session.

example the user named "patrik" can be login concurrently from 12 stations thru telnet the 13th if some body tries to telnet 13th session it should not allow, until any of the 12 sessions are closed.

is it possibel ...i think PAM (plugable authentical module) can be used to do this ..can any one tell how can this be achived ...
thanks..
