Hello,

I've looked through archives, but could not find any information on the
following topic:

I have users logged into the network via some ISP, which using RADIUS. Is
there any possibility (I couldn't find it in the RFC) to access login name
of the user given the IP address assigned by that ISP? I mean, is there any
standard to access such information, or rather - I must negotiate this with
the ISP and establish some proprietary protocol? Also, if this is not
possible using radius, are you aware of any other ways of getting this
information? I'd envision the following solution: the user dials in, gets IP
address from ISP. This requires password authorization. Now, since he has
succesfully logged (and I trust that ISP, of course!), I wouldn't require
the authorization on my, let us say, telnet service or something similar.
Instead, I'd query the incoming connection (specifically: it's IP source
address) at ISP and check, who has logged in and - if successful - grant the
access without prompting for password.

Thanks a lot,
Marek.
