How to identify computer which I have redirected

How to identify computer which I have redirected

I have the following problem to solve:
I few months ago I startet a website where you can watch youtube videos
which aren't available in your country. Everythings works fine but now I
want to offer a new method where I route all the requests directly over my
server. Therefore I will later use a custom DNS-Server. Right now I use
the hosts file for testing but I have really no idea how i can identify
the user. I can promp the user user to login on a website but I will that
it works systemwide so if he use a youtube downloader for example it have
to work there either and not only in the browser where I could use a
session system with cookies. I want a solution where the user can identify
himself once in a time like a website or something like this but how can
my server detect if this is a user which is logged in or if he is not?
