(RADIATOR) Something for the Wish List

[Brian Morris]

Hi folks,

I would like to propose a 'feature' to add to the Radiator wishlist.

How about a feature where, if a customer is not permitted more than one
simultaneous login, that the system allows the second connection to connect,
but also drops the first connection.

This will have two benefits to my specific case...

1.  If a subscriber was logged in at work then went home but forgot to
disconnect from work, he can still connect when he gets home without having
to get us to drop his other connection. (less support requests = happy
customer = happy support staff = happy manager!)

2.  'Leechers' who buy unlimited access accounts then share them with
friends will be booted off whenever they break the rules. (less leechers =
got the bastards = more profit = happy manager!!)

Perhaps a post-auth hook or something could do this.  The actual disconnect
process would be NAS dependant but I am sure it could be done.

Regards,

Brian Morris
(somewhat happy) Manager,
NetSpeed
