Or it is simply not finding the 'parameter name' it is looking for so returning nothing. Seems to me they are passing it a 'ParName' to look for on the left side of the name/value pairs in a parameter file and when found it returns the 'ParValue', the right side. Not found - return nothing. Not look...

As noted, you can identify the user by simply looking in the log. Of course at some point the logs will purge and that information will be gone.
