Hi Payal,

You will have to write quite lot of code to achieve this goal.
Currently we do not have the "user A is currently logged in"
information. And actually I am not sure how you could know that if the
user does not click on "logout".
The authentication checks are done in C4::Auth::checkauth

Regards,
Jonathan
