1 login for different people.....

[Bramvg]

Hi,

Does anyone of you have an idea how to secure my website knowing that a certain password can be used by 4 people at the same time. THe 5th person cannot have access if the tries to access the website.

Currently I use session management and cookies to restrict access to my website. But that is only in the case that 1 password is for 1 person.

My customer asks me now to use the same password for 4 'accounts'.
How do I keep track of how many people currently are logged in?


Any help more thank welcome guys (and girls)

first thing that comes to mind is to use application variables and an array

Hi albao,

Tnx for the answer, but could you specify it a little bit more?

e.g. you sollution with arrays: how to do it?
-> storing in the session (how to store array info in session)
And how to add a user? + how to 'delete' a user?

With many thanks
bram

even when you have 4 different users logged in with the same user name/password, they are going to have different cfif and cftoken values; you can use that info to distinguish 4 users logged in and disable password if 5th tries to log in Sylvano
