I'm using PEAR's HTTP_Session in combination with PEAR::DB: http://pear.php.net/package/HTTP_Session http://pear.php.net/package/DB Although HTTP_Session is still in beta state I haven't experienced any problems yet. Unfortunately there is no documention yet but if you have any questions to get started just post on the PEAR mailing list. The session table has a timestamp column named expiry which will make it easy to count the active sessions. By the way, doing the DB session count should also be faster than counting the files in your /tmp dir ;) Regards, Torsten > > Thanks > > > >From: "Torsten Roehr" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Subject: [PHP] Re: Active PHP Sessions > >Date: Fri, 7 May 2004 15:30:29 +0200 > > > >"Paul Higgins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > >news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Hi all, > > > > > > I'm on a shared server, and I do not believe that I have access to the > >/tmp > > > directory where the session files are stored (I believe that is how it > >works > > > :).
