Hi, this is for sharepoint (thread here) but I figure you asp.net security guys would be especially good to ask.
I need help figuring out where to store the pool of concurrent users for licensing purposes.
One option is to store them in the database, but then what if the users just write a script to delete the entries in the database?
Another option is to have some sort of windows service that keeps track of the concurrent users in memory, and our software just sends messages to it to add/remove concurrent users.
But what other options are there to do this? What's the best way?
I also received a suggestion to use sharepoint property bags or Application variables, but that seems a lot like the database solution.
