    Multiple logins at the boot screen?

    Is there any method to allow multiple users to login to the main server - something like is allowed in windows ?

    I am aware of how to telnet/ssh into the machine, but there are some engineering programs which need to be run on the head node (for some display issue problems on the ssh windows), which locks up the head node for another user who might need to log into the machine for their own work.

    If anyone is aware of a solution, can you please guide me to where I can set it up to permit multiple users to work at the head node without logging off, and instead allow "switch user" or something of the kind ?

    TIA.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Any user can login on the console. I'm not sure I understand what your problem may be.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
