Note: Many users can use InterMapper RemoteAccess to connect to an InterMapper server at the same time. At any given time, however, only one user may edit a map. If you try to change a map to Edit mode while it is being edited by another user, a message appears. You can choose to interrupt the other user's editing session, at which time you gain the right to edit the map.
