As far as I remember FUDforum at one point allowed that one user could have several sessions, provided they where from different nodes, so a session was bound to a (account,node) pair.

Anyway, a second login is not possible now. If I login a second time from another node, the first sessions gets terminated, the next transaction on this first session indicates, that I'm not logged in anymore.

Is this a feature ? If yes, why ? I'm working on several systems in parallel (Linux/Windows), and would like to use a forum from all.

If the limitation of a single session per account is considered a feature, than it be great if the login dialog would indicate that a previous session was implicitly terminated.

This is a feature I turned off for our installation:

Multiple Host Login:
This option allows users to login into the forum from different computers/browsers and not terminate their existing sessions on other computers/browsers.


Sorry!
