All,
I was thinking about a scheme to retrieve usernames from UIDs on
different machines. I was going to push the passwd file from a
participating audit client up to the server. Then I'll store it uniquely
according to its IP address (e.g. /var/etc/passwd.192.168.10.10).

Forgot to add - one alternative is to replace the UIDs in the events
with the usernames, but I thought that one might be a bigger impact to
the code base.
