Whenever an IP connection is brought up by pppd, it calls /etc/ppp/ip-up.
/etc/ppp/ip-up is a RedHat script. It will call /etc/ppp/ip-up.local if it
exists. The paramaters it gets passed are these:
interface-name tty-device speed local-IP-address remote-IP-address
The username you can get from utmp or /var/log/messages or possibly adding an
entry in PAM to make it log it in a special place for you.
