Yes, look into using ident to get the username. This would query a small
process that runs on the LTSP server to tell the squid proxy which user
has that connection open. This is invisible to the end-user, they don't
have to login to the proxy or anything like that. You could also write
your own ident daemon to return whatever you want, such as the name or
IP address of the thin client the user is sitting at.
