Possible for one user to login with mutiple sessions

Wondering if there is a way to allow users to login multiple times simultaeneously? I have a number of generic customer accounts which provide read-only access to windows file shares. We'd like to be able to allow multiple people to login with a single account at the same time but at the moment get the message that a session already exists when they try and login.

Couldn't see anything in the admin pages, so I'm guessing it's not possible but throwing it out there as a question to see if anyone knows for sure.

TIA

Are you aware that in later versions (7.x) you have the ability to allow multiple logins for the same user ID. The maxiumum number of logins per ID is set at the realm, authentication policy / limits.
