I believe node counts against a user, not a service. In other words in 
your example where User1 is connected to Node 1 as telnet and node 2 as 
http, that would only consume 1 node, since its the same user. 

Easier to explain would be consider a "Node" as a unique user. If you have 
10 nodes, your can have 10 unique (different) users all connected at the 
same time... even of they were connected more than once, as in telnet, 
http, ftp, pop3, smtp.

I hope I helped and didn't make the confusion worse!
