This is a patch for the use of WHOSON prococol on postfix.

WHOSON is a procotocol to know if a (dynamically allocated) IP address
is currently allocated to a known (trusted) user and, optionally, the
identity of the said user.

You could get information and a server implementation
look at http://sourceforge.net/projects/whoson/

The patch is avaiable from
ftp://victor.teaser.fr/pub/lwa/postfix/
It applies on snapshot-20010228. To apply the patch :

% cd snapshot-20010228
% patch -p < snapshot-20010228-whoson.patch.2

then build postfix.

The patch add a new postfix map named "whoson". It take as argument
the address and the port of a TCP whoson server or the full path of a
unix domain whoson server. Only the lookup method is implemented.
All successful lookup are logged in the postfix logs flow.

Most of the code has been grabed from dict_tcp.c

This map is mainly useful to give relay access with
check_client_access restriction. You could enable it with a
configuration like this in main.cf :

  smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
                          permit_mynetworks
                          check_client_access whoson:whoson-server:whoson-port
                          check_relay_domains

  (adapt the rules to your tastes)

It has currently not been fully tested but it sounds to work. Use it
at your risks.
