Re: (ASCEND) Preventing simultaneous dial-up sessions




One way to do this is to user stacking which effectively combines
the max's into one "virtual" unit.. though this can be fiddly.

Another way (and this is what we use here, since we have a selection
of both PRI and analog lines to check for multiple logins on) is to
put external hooks into the radiusd to perform a few external quick 
checks before allowing authentication to be successful.
