I've been looking at the management/management-notes.txt file. And CID does indicate a Client-ID. In fact, this ID is required by more of the commands issued. But there is no "overview list" which reports it, as far as I can understand. Thus putting this into the status command seems reasonable to me. The only way to track those CID values is by looking for client notifications as clients connect and authenticates themselves. kind regards, David Sommerseth -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkuLrVkACgkQDC186MBRfrrFzwCgiVbJKcJWpDi2ZJ7Ipewlan1m f6gAoJjQMfA8uzlcG+ckMO6f1Xyyb1S7 =BnUR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
