- It is clear that the HTTP protocol per se provides no means
- for the server to determine the identity of the user on
- the client machine, or even the name of the client machine.
- But (I ask in all ignorance of Unix) is there another way
- for the server to get this information, perhaps by making
- calls to a lower level of the TCP/IP protocol?

- I would like to make an HTTP server that provided differing
- levels of access to those within and without Cornell.
- I regret this must be so because some of the databases
- we have here can not be released outside Cornell.
