- Bear in mind that, just because they may not enforce it at some
- time they will not later change their mind. Some versions of
- UN*X for 386/486 from USL and ATT are sold as two-user license
- environments, but either don't enforce those limits or actually
- support (and enforce) a larger number (sixteen was the basic
- license under SVr3.2). USL's most recent SVr4.2, however, does
- *strictly* enforce a two login limitation, even if coming through
- different channels (console, async port, network).
