You need a few lines of code in the system profile. I haven't got my examples to hand (it was a few years ago now), but I'm sure someone will post something soon ...

This should work (though there's probably a better way...)
add in /etc/profile:
LOGNAME=`/usr/ucb/whoami`
SES=`who | grep $LOGNAME | wc -l`
if [ $SES -gt 2 ]
then
echo "Too many sessions!"
sleep 2
exit
fi
You may also put a check to see if LOGNAME is root...
