Default Tracing IP addresses

Guys,

I'm looking after my mates fanboard on his website as the usual administrator is offline while moving, and I don't have access to the ISP over the weekend.

We've had a torrent of abusive messages over the last few days so I've asked the ISP to switch on IP logging.

The abuse all seems to be coming from the same IP address, but is there any way I can find out information on this so I can try and figure out if we know the poster?

Thanks,
Simon.

ps offending IP address is [edited on sammy's advice )

What BBS software are you using? It may be that it can log incoming IPs & you can compare that against existing users to see if it's one of your regulars on a mission.

Most can
