Hi, I replied to your email too quickly. You can also set license_max_sessions dynamically via alter system. So if you only need to set it for certain times, then that is another option.

The idea being that that user has probably been on long enough and needs to learn to share resources. Alternatively, you can set license_max_sessions in your init.ora file. ----------------------------------------- Alan Davey Senior Analyst/Project Leader Oracle 9i OCA; 3/4 OCP w) 973.267.5990 x458 w) 212.295.3458 -----Original Message----- From: Senthil Kumar [mailto:senthilkumard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2004 9:28 AM To: oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: How to restrict the user connections Hi List, How do I restrict the number of user connections.
