Hi,

I was asking why since loading CDE I seam to be getting alot of the error :

Maximum number of users are already logged in

The following sums up the response I got :

>> Unless you have purchased more OSF-USR licenses, the system comes with a 2
>> interactive user license. If you want to support more users, you need more
>> licenses. Licenses are needed for X-terminal login, terminal login, and
>> rlogin use. None needed for ftp or rsh's that just execute a command and
>> don't use rlogin.

>> Note that versions of Digital UNIX before V3.0 did *not* enforce interactive
>> user licenses, even though you're responsible for having the correct number
>> of licenses for the user load you're running. V3.0 and later *do* enforce the

>>licenses via the License Management Facility (lmf).

I guess we need to spend some more money !!
