- Hello,
-
- for thoose who may know a little about the ISODE layers, is it possible
- to obtain the connecting users identity from the ACSAP? I guess it
- may depend on the applications, but is a username transfered
- with the connection setup info for any applications?
-
- Lastly, Does the session layer PDU have both theintiating
- users ID, or name, and a responding users ID? I am digging around
- in the code and can see the address of the initiating host, but
- no where do I get info for any application about usernames. Is this
- specific to an application (ie: vt), and thus unavailable within
- the layers.? thanks for any help.
