717.0. "How many users on DW workstation?" by HSSWS1::KAMPS () Tue May 02 1989 18:16

    Hi,
    
    This has probably been asked somewhere sometime, but I
    couldn't find it.
    
    Does Decwindows prevent a second user from logging into
    a workstation with the 1-2 user license.  It looks to me
    as though the session mgr is one interactive user and the
    first user uses up the second interactive user.  Is this true?
    
    When I try to log in remotely with Decwindows up I get
    a message that the license limit is exceeded.  This does
    not happen when I reboot with VWS.
    
    Is there a way a system mgr can get into the system if the
    system hangs and a process needs to be killed, or otherwise
    looked at?
    
    thanks
    Bill
