WebDirect and separation model: one connection per file?

Hello, I'm testing FMS16 WebDirect with a two files solution  (an interface file that loads a data file). When the inteface file opens, it doesn't load the data file. My FMS license has a limit of 1 user connection, that seems to be the issue.

Does this means that a two files solution will use two connections per user that opens the solution?

OK I figured it out ... I had the interface file opened by default with an account, but I have set up the data file to asks for the login and password (when accessing from FM Pro).  I have removed the auto-login for the interface file and now it works perfectly: one user can open two files now :)

    Only connections to the server count, not the connections to individual files.

    Thank you! that´s what makes sense. I'm glad it was only a problem with the login configuration of my files :)
