Working with SYSLOGINS (None Specified)

Can we use the records in SYSLOGINS to track additional information?
We have an application where everyone logs into OI using a generic username. We have a custom username and password interface that is used to identify the end user and their security profile.
There are many neat features that can be created with the SYSLOGINS table but if everyone logs in with a generic username then it will not be as useful. If we could amend the information being stored in each record with our internal username then this would easily work around this problem. Additionally, we would need a way to determine which SYSLOGINS record was created for the specific user logging in. Can this be done easily as well?
Thanks,

Don,
Each workstation can write data to its own record starting at field 11 (I think) … so the first 10 fields are reserved for system use.
One workstation cannot write to another workstation's record.

Cameron,
Cool, thanks. I guess I can construct the appropriate key from the system variables and go from there.
