[wellylug] Samba PDC and multiple logins by same user

Hello,
I have a Samba3 PDC and a number of XP workstations joined to the  
domain.
Everything works fine except that one user cannot log onto two  
different desktops at the same time.
I am pretty sure this is a default security option for Samba/Windows  
PDC but I was wondering whether this could be disabled (or at least  
changed) to allow one user to log into two different workstations.  
The requirement is practical as only one of the machines has a non- 
networkable scanner attached.

Does anyone know the smb.conf entry that sets the number of  
concurrent user logins?
Or should this not be happening at all and is my PDC acting up?
I've searched the Samba Howto but I am not having much luck finding  
any clues.

Regards,


David
