In response to a user request, here is a clarification.
At
http://www.rahul.net/guest/features.html
you will find this section (recently revised):
concurrent use
Concurrent use of a single account via modem dial-in is permitted
only for brief periods for testing and debugging connection
problems. Multiple concurrent telnet/rlogin sessions to a single
account are permitted where account type permits unlimited use,
but all active (not idle) sessions must originate from the same
host.
The basic idea is that you, the user, can have multiple active
telnet/rlogin sessions, but you and somebody else should not be
accessing your account your account at the same time from different
locations. So long as only one person is actively using your account,
and not using more than one of our dial-line lines at a time, we are
satisfied.
