Just a thought. When the initial HTTP connection is made, does it run a third part software for downloading? Otherwise at that point, you could capture the IP address, the question is how do you tie the java login to the http session.
Or possibly setup two telnet ports, and only download the second telnet port applet to those you want to no logout as fast. So if the connection was made say, on port 2323 you know to not logout but if the port is 23 then regular. This would be regardless of the source IP address.
