-pptpd 1.2.0 logwtmp feature, by James Cameron, 28th April 2004.
-
-The --logwtmp feature uses the standard wtmp feature to track users
-who have connections to the server. It works as follows.
-
-When a connection occurs, pptpd launches pppd with two additional
-options. The first option directs pppd to load the pptpd-logwtmp.so
-plugin. The second option is the IP address of the client.
-
- "plugin /usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so"
- "pptpd-original-ip 10.0.0.1"
-
-The plugin defines the pptpd-original-ip option so that pppd will
-accept it.
-
-If the plugin fails to load, pppd will fail in the usual manner. Such
-a failure will usually be related to a missing file in /usr/lib/pptpd.
-
-The plugin asks pppd to notify it when IP comes up or goes down.
-
-When IP comes up, the plugin's ip_up() function executes, calling
-logwtmp() to mark the user as logged in. Once this has happened,
-commands like "who" will show the user. The tty will be set to the
-PPP interface name.
-
-When IP goes down, the plugin's ip_down() function executes, removing
-the entry from wtmp. Note that a "kill -9" on the pppd will result in
-a user appearing to remain logged in. Don't use "kill -9", use an
-ordinary kill.
-
-If pppd debug mode is enabled, the plugin announces it's version when
-loaded, and reports the parameters it is handing over to the logwtmp
-call. See the plugins/pptpd-logwtmp.c source.
