[Samba] how to avoid two users using the same login id at the same time

Hello,


I don´t know if this is the correct list to post this
question, but...
I need to restrict my Samba PDC to permit just ONE
login with a id at a time. I don´t want two users (or
more) using the same login at the same time.
I´m tracking user activity using preexec and postexec
to execute commands after acessing a shared directory
at Samba PDC. I can get the information about login
and logout, but I can´t avoid users getting the same
login without blocking the user with smbpasswd -d
after the first login.
I´ve got some information about in the list archive
regarding about using the directive "use pam
restriction", compiling Samba to use wtmp and using a
PAM module to track user activity in wtmp database.
This seems to be very complicated to me, since I don´t
know PAM very well.
Anybody could share some experience about this issue?
Any comment about would help me.

Thank you all,
