Capturing caller id

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

I'm still wresting with this caller-id thing.  It was suggested that I pull
the caller-id out of the log file.  However, since this system will be
supporting dozens of simultaneous dialins eventually, I don't think this is 
practical.

What I'd really like to see is for mgetty to not only screen caller numbers, 
but a combination of login-id and phone number.  I need to limit logins to
a specific user from a specific phone number.  That user can't call from 
anywhere else and no other user name is authorized to call from that number.

Could I get some guidance on how I can accomplish this?  I'm willing to take
a crack at modifying the source myself, if I can get some clues of where to
start ...
