Hello, I've been catching up on old messages and came across this
one.  In general, the ipcp-accept-remote command is exactly what
I need for the same situation as described below, however I have
the added complexity of the following. 

I would like a particular customer to be able to supply his own
IP address however I don't want anyone else but this particular 
customer (or set of customers) to be able to set an IP address.  
Any ideas???

(Even better, I would like to be able to associate a particular 
login name with a specific IP address, regardless of the line 
the customer dials in on, just like dip/slip does.)

Thanks in advance!!
