I think booting the currently logged in character is a better way to limit this than to not allow the account to login when there's already a toon on. The reason is, I see ghosts and characters seemingly stuck online long after I log out sometimes. I think in some cases you might go LD and then not be able to get back in.
I'm going to have to agree. One of the main problems I've had with the IP Limiting code thus far has been where people disconnect/crash on one or more characters (limit is currently set for two) and then can't come back on. However, if I log in, I'll find their two characters standing right where they left them, and they'll stand there until the server reboots unless I do a #kick.

To see the above quoted modification to this code and/or the IP Limiting code would help immensely with the problem I just described, and maybe have an effect on the character ghosting issues that Windows servers experience.
