PPP 2.4.2 not logging username

PPP 2.4.2 not logging username

[Philip Ross]

I am using PPP 2.4.2 with Poptop (MSCHAP-v2 + MPPE-128) and I am finding
that the username only gets logged when authentication fails.  Unless I
switch on debug logging and look for the CHAP Response packet, there is no
way of seeing who has logged in successfully.  Is it possible to get pppd to
log the username for all authentication attempts instead of just for failed
ones (I'm fairly certain it used to do this in previous 2.4.2 betas)?

Thanks,

Phil
