When using 802.1X (wired or wireless) the username is also present in this table (locationlog). I'm pretty sure that it does what you expect. Its a linear log of all connections. Now on the node information (node view), what happens is that we change the status from 'reg' to 'unreg' and the rest is all kept. So, unless the PC changes hands you can still see who has been accessing the network in the past even if it has unregistered. That is, unless someone else re-registered with a different username. If all else fails you can always go and grep the logs (if you keep them). -- Olivier Bilodeau [email protected] :: +1.514.447.4918 *115 :: www.inverse.ca Inverse inc. :: Leaders behind SOGo (www.sogo.nu) and PacketFence (www.packetfence.org) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Packetfence-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/packetfence-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Packetfence-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/packetfence-users
