It seems that "jsol" has trouble with users who have accounts on his machine.
There is really no Unix-y answer to this.  What I think he's looking for
is a system like xhost that will allow one to specify a list of uids that
can connect to the server.  But I suppose you can't get the uid of the client
process from a network stream...
