I assume you're addressing the original question (in which case it
doesn't help comprehension that you quoted the above, by now quite OT,
since it has nothing to do with what you're talking about).

If you think systemtap is going to help you with your issue, you haven't
understood the replies so far. The problem is not that you can't get the
server to tell you about active clients, it's that the server doesn't
*know* about them. It has no concept of an "active client" in the way
you mean.
