Overview:
---------
The session-limit module is designed to allow an administrator to limit
the number of simultaneous sessions a user may have.

Installation and configuration:
-------------------------------
Installation is as simple as copying the module into your 'modules' directory,
then enabling the module at 'Administer >> Site building >> Modules'.

The default max sessions is 1. Change default max sessions can be changed in
'Administer >> User management >> Session limit'.

Triggers are available to assign any of the three system actions to either the
collision or disconnect events. That includes displaying a message to the user,
sending an email, or redirecting to a different URL.

Rules events are available for collision or disconnect events.

The precedence of defined session limits are:

1. The user's session limit if set, otherwise,
2. The highest session limit for a user as set on their roles, if all are set to default then
3. The system default session_limit

Optional:
---------
This module is able to use the token module for generating tokenized emails
or showing tokenized messages on the collision and disconnect events.

http://drupal.org/project/token

If you want to customize the notices that users see, try the String Overrides
module. Both the message for prompting to disconnect a user and the message
that the disconnected user sees are passed through Drupal's localize t()
function.
