You forgot the best one...6: Bill them for their regular account * N,
where N is the largest number of simultaneous sessions they had that
month. Or 7: Write your own script that uses pmmon or another util to
"finger" the PM's and then pmcmd to kill all of user X's sessions if X is
over their session limit.

Or 8: *RFE* finger protocol for ComOS so you can use standard finger to
check who's on the PM without having to have scripts or programs with the
CLEAR TEXT passwords in them...with 4mb RAM the minimum now for ComOS,
don't tell me there's not enough memory in a PM to support finger...which
could even be turned off for those that don't want it.
