I noticed that on Linux, two people could log onto the same account at the same time.
Is there are way to make it so that if someone is logged on to an account, if anyone else tries to log in as that account, it won't let them? This would improve security, because if someone is trying to log in as root, but root is already on, then that person can't log in as root.
What will people say if they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
What will people do if they find that it's true?
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak, there is no disguising the truth!

Yep, and that's good so

If someone is trying to login as root, well who cares?! If you want to improve security disable remote root logins

Yes you could do that...
Take a look at the files in /etc/security/.
You can even disallow access for some users () at certain times of the day, or days of the week.
Maybe you want to limit all logins of certain users to one second CPU time? Or limit the number of processes? Also possible
I don't recommend doing such things, though!

Intersting. Maybe I'll try that...I tend to reinstall Linux a lot anyways, might as well find a new way.
