Here's one that's been setting in the background for a while..

I have a database of usernames..These usernames contain
two different domains: xyz.com and abc.com.
In certain circumstances [EMAIL PROTECTED] exists as well as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ..

Here's what I've gotten working so far..
Authentication.. I rewrite the username appropriately, so that
it checks the password for @xyz.com first, then @abc.com ..

My problem resides in the Accounting SessionDatabase table
and duplicate login checking.. I want to store, within the SessionDB
the full username, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ..

However, within my seperate Accounting Process, all it knows about
is the username that is containted within the accounting start packet.
I can't rewrite the username, because I don't know which one to
rewrite to.

Question being, is there a way to do a simple AuthBy SQL within the
Accounting server.. to progressively rewrite the username to the appropriate
one as needed? (Is the user-password variable available for the accounting
to do this?) This would allow me to store the 'rewrote' username
in the sessiondatabase and not have any screw ups where [EMAIL PROTECTED]
is logged in but [EMAIL PROTECTED] can't..

Confusing I know..

Anybody (or Hugh) have any suggestions as to what would be the best
possible way to do the accounting process in this circumstance? In case we
add
another batch of [EMAIL PROTECTED] we may run into this problem again, so it'd
be
nice to have a solution..

Thanks again,

Cassidy
