Do a netstat, look for their up to 15 lettered name, then do a netstat -n
and see what IP address corresponds to that name. An alternative is to do
ofiles on the in.{telnet,rlogin}d parent of their shell.

And of course, Dan will gladly inform us that if the sites use his
authd package, we can get the remote user name as well.
