Why? do you mean this as form of weak user authentication?

You probably can turn on log_fwdn and set up hosts file where you define
each ip as "username" so in "IP" field you'll have usernames.

also, you can parse log files after rotation and replace IPs with users, or
change ident fields to user, accorging to IP connected. Simple awk/perl
script can do that.
