I did some work on prototyping this a couple weeks ago, and got a Python DNS server working. If anybody else is excited about this, let me know. Otherwise I'll finish it sometime...

    33AIUI, given the way ssh and the dialups work right now, we could easily do this by having a DNS server that handled username.ist-dialup.sipb.org or so and maintained a persistent mapping of username -> dialup. Ideally, we could convince IS&T to take and maintain this, but SIPB running such a service would be a useful second choice. In any case, Jon suggests that prototyping such a service is a good first step.
