Yes, eventually I want to goto a radius style way of doing this,
but for the moment I dont' really want to affect the operation too
much. (I don't believe that the radius aware pppd is yet working?)
For this reason I thought I'ld just have a simple program that just
logged the bytes used when the user disconnected.  I've hacked a
pppstat's program to just give me the info for a particular port.
