<div class="section"> <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> By default, the iSeries™ Access for Linux<sup>®</sup> 5250 emulator
shares the same process for multiple sessions used on a Linux client,
defined as a system with a single Linux user, using one Linux userid.
To enable multiple users or thin clients, use the ibm5250 -STAND_ALONE command
line option. This option allows multiple thin clients, Virtual Network Computing
(VNC), and Linux Terminal
Server Project (LSTP) users to easily use the 5250 emulator. </div>
