Hi,

In the recent discussion on HTTP Authentification, it was said (by Bob Lee)
that you can't tie the origin of the the request (the IP address) to the
session for reasons that have been discussed here time and time again.

For a recent joiner of this forum, where can I find this discussion, or
could someone please re-iterate the reasons (yet again).

Thanks.
