Andrew, Saturday, December 11, 1999 I am finally coming to that conclusion myself. How can inetd return a (bogus) ident answer? I used oidentd when I had a Linux-Router sitting where my FreeBSD box is now for such purposes but there are several things that explicitly do not like Linux "firewalls" and I am trying to get my FreeBSD box to be a transparent router. Any pointers and/or clues would be appreciated! -- Ben.
