Enforcing single users

I am using Forms Authentication. What is best practice of enforcing each user to only be permitted to run a single instance of the application. I would like to enforce this even if the authenticated user attempts to connect on a different computer.

Thanks for any advice.

Unless you can identify the user by the computer IP address they are working
from, I don't believe this is possible.
