Hi, J.
I assume your clients want to do this like we used to with Hypercard,
sharing a single stack. Are they trying to save per-seat charges, by
saying that one user at a time is good enough?
How about, as I've mentioned, a splash screen standalone at each
seat to do the local authentication? And do something at the remote
served stack level that allows only x users at a time... they won't
be able to run the stack alone without an IDE and knowing the way in.
Is the client having an IDE a concern?
