Hi Shannon,

we enabled only one line in /etc/inetd.conf. Look for this line and it should
work (we can connect to the IRCNet without problems).

# Provide internally a real "ident" service which provides ~/.fakeid support,
# provides ~/.noident support, reports UNKNOWN as the operating system type
# and times out after 30 seconds.
#
auth    stream  tcp     nowait/10/10    root    internal        auth -r -f -n
-o UNKNOWN -t 30

Hope that helps

Marc
