Ensure your client will respond to ident requests.  Also, it must reply to
the ping correctly...from memory, I believe it should be Pong $server
m#####  region.

That may or may not be precisely correct...been awhile since I messed with
it.  If you can get your hands on the code for the ircd, all your questions
would be answered.  The most stable ircd I have seen is at   
ftp.beyondirc.net   it should be named beyond-2.0.tar.gz

If ya need more answers, email me directly, or come onto irc and look for
me there.
