Hi, After my last question about increse user load I sat down and made some changes in a couple of files. I have now (I think) got it to work so that you can increase the user load with the number of thread in a threadgroup.
It's not pretty and I have only tested it on web testing and not FTP or JDBC. But I can add a lot of users to the authfile and then select how many thread I want to run and the same a mount of users with different userid/password will be used. I don't know where to send the patch so the people that knows more about JMeter can check it out and see if it is something to use. Get back to me for more info or questions.
