I've noticed the problem with the Connect-Info attribute too; see
the "ComOS 3.7 Strageness" thread. The only corelation that I've
been able to find is that it NEVER shows K56flex connections. It
doesn't show all non-K56flex connections, however... I connected
with a 2400 bps modem and it didn't show it.

I've always assumed that the missing "Calling-Station-Id" entries
were calls from paranoid types that have caller-ID disabled.
