You could do something in /etc/ssh/sshrc, as that exit is called by
sshd during login and before the user gets control.

With the 'useradd' command, the option '-o' specifies to allow
"duplicate non-unique" userids.
I assume that means to allow multiple signons of the same userid.
It doesn't make sense that it would allow you to create multiple "same"
userids...right? So I take a guess that it means at signon time.
