double login problem

Hello to everybody,
I've installed samba 2 to my Red Hat Linux 9 system and I want to prevent the same user to loggin twice (to a seperate workstation). Does anyone has an idea how can I do it?

Thanks in advance!

The best way is probably to use the login script to check and kick the user out with a message if they are registered as being logged in somewhere else.

We have a (Windows) system at work that adds the user and workstation to a SQL database at part of the logon script, and the entry is removed by a logoff script.
