Hello.. Sorry if this is the wrong mailing list to send this question to. I wasn't sure weather to send this question to ports or questions. I'm trying to install an external identd server via /etc/inetd.conf so that I won't get that annoying ~brueggma@blah when I /whois myself. This is how I did it: cd /usr/ports/security/pidentd; make; make install; make clean vi /etc/inetd.conf uncomment auth stream tcp wait root /usr/local/sbin/identd identd -w -t120 killall -HUP inetd vi /etc/hosts.allow add the following line "auth : ALL : allow" at the top. I then fire up BitchX, but the following is written to /var/log/messages: Apr 11 16:45:47 crh5193 inetd[148]: auth/tcp server failing (looping), service terminated The following is also displayed when I use BitchX: [umn] *** Looking up your hostname... [umn] *** Found your hostname, cached [umn] *** Checking Ident [umn] *** No Ident response What am I doing wrong?
