Is there a way to allow only 1 simultaneous login per username such that if a 
username had an open ticket it would not allow the SAME username access until 
the ticket expires?

We plan to have multiple access servers authenticate via Kerberos but don't 
want users to "share" their accounts with others. I have verified that V4 
*allows* multiple accesses per username. Perhaps V5 doesn't or maybe there is 
some trick I'm not aware of (or maybe it's staring me in the face but I don't 
see it!). Thanks in advance for considering my problem.
