Getting user sessions info from a Portmaster

Hi. We're a small ISP using several PortMasters for dial-in PPP. I want to
extract the user session information (who's logged in, etc.) from the
PortMasters and put it into a text file which can in turn be spit out by our
finger server. What's the best way to go about getting this info? I played a
bit with writing a perl script to connect with sockets and extract the data
from a telnet session, but that seems less than elegant. Can this be done
with SNMP somehow? Or any other way?

Thanks!
