I just learned of a nice feature, Logon Triggers. A nice example of what they can do is limit a specific user to a certain number, 3 for example, concurrent logons.
A nice little example of how to do this is as follows:
Let's say we have a login name of login_test.
The interesting feature of this type of trigger is that the server authenticates the login but BEFORE the user is connected to the server or database the trigger is fired and the appropriate action is taken.
See the full explanation of logon triggers at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb326598.aspx
There's also a good explanation of how these triggers relate to trace events and event notifications.
See my other post detailing a good use for such a trigger.
