Oh this would be fun to implement. You would do two checks during the login process. First is check the ip to make sure it’s unique, and second check the MAC address for each computer that’s connecting. P99 already does this so it’s not difficult to include. The rest would be adjusting the rules variables in the MySQL database and then Perl scripting. Very enjoyable if you’re into these kinds of things, I know I do [You must be logged in to view images.

MAC addresses are easily spoofed and VPNs provide unlimited IPs. Loramin is exactly right, solving the problem of a "unique person" is a problem that p99 doesn't have the wherewithal to solve.

I agree though, it does sound like a fun project to work on from a coding perspective.
