[Geomoose-users] User id

[Carl Burn]

Hi Brent,

the user will be coming in from a different physical machine, though the
mapserver machine does have open bluedragon on it, so I could do that by
simply intercepting them before they get to geomoose and creating a session,
sticking the user id into it and then picking it up on the way out....its
kind of round about but it would work and I think I am going to need to get
the cf engine to do some heavy lifting on the way out anyway.
