Mike,
Not sure about Stephen's tip. Unless you are charging big bucks per user.
You would have to track - on a daily basis logged in users. Then, would have to show those days where usage was exceeded. You would have variable billing. Seems like a lot of work - depending on the incremental charge. Then, billing could be questioned and you would have to answer. Might be easier to license for n and allow for n+2 users or something like that.

Hi Carl,
n <> n + 2....lol!
Seriously though...if you track license usage, then you already have something in place for daily basis in users as you said. You could give a kind warning, maybe giving them X warnings before a surcharge kicked in. All done programatically (until the limit is met, and then you'd manually bill them if they accepted some "WARNING: PROCEEDING WILL INCUR A FEE OF $5 FOR THIS EXTRA USER BEYOND YOUR LICENSE LIMIT." or something nicer and friendlier than that.
I don't think I would do that anyway, but it's an interesting discussion.
