I just recently noticed that acushare is now listing terminal ID's rather than user names under SCO Unix. I have users that log in multiple times from the same terminal. How is this affecting the user count?

Previously, if a user was logged in 2 times, they just had 2 processes. Now are they counted as 2 users?

Your observation is correct.

If they launch additional processes through the same terminal they will still be counted as a single user. This change is by design.

Did you mean that they will be counted as an additional user, if logged in more than once from the same physical terminal?
