Hello Karim,

It's quite funny you ask this question, because I've been working on this=
 last week=2E

The new TTY code, which I'll commit next week, adds a new rlimit to the=
 kernel called RLIMIT_NPTS=2E This rlimit allows you to limit the number of=
 pseudo-terminals allocated by a single user=2E This means you can limit=
 the number of login sessions by tuning the "pseudoterminals" field in=
 /etc/login=2Econf=2E

This seems to work with tools like screen(1), xterm(1), etc=2E
Unfortunately I didn't get it working with OpenSSH, because OpenSSH=
 allocates terminals while been root=2E I've already contacted the OpenSSH=
 folks about this, but I haven't got any response (yet)=2E
