Tom,

In my testing of this, each terminal received a different TCPIP address and
each session on that terminal shared the same TCPIP address. Are you saying
that this is not necessarily true? How would each terminal have the same
TCPIP address? (I'm pretty ignorant on the subject of communications.)

through dumb terminals without telnetting first will pay for multiple users?
<<That is, you've decided to charge by connection method rather than for
usage.
