Hi,

Is there such a thing as a license (Licence) file that holds how many remote/telnet logins can be made ?

Currently using AIX 4.3.3 on ML9.

Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, no - you just use SMIT to change the number of licenses

Thanks Alexhu. What do the telnet licenses go through ?

At the moment I have done a smit licenses and it shows things such as nodelock licenses. Is there a weblink which describes these?

Thanks again.

chlicense -u 64

I don't know if '0' will unlimit it but try.

Cheers
 
Thanks unixfreak.

Did a man on chlicense and noticed this entry:

-u License Changes the number of fixed licenses on a system. The value of
License must be a number greater than 0. The -u flag is optional.

So '0' would indeed not work.

Have now traced something called maxlogin to /etc/security/login.cfg

maxlogin = 150

So I take it 150 users can login at 1 time then?
