Don't know if this is the problem... I tried changing my from "ident" to "auth" for the first arguement, and still no good. This is what I get: *** Connecting to port 6667 of server irc.mcs.net *** Looking up your hostname... *** Found your hostname, cached *** Checking Ident *** Notice -- You need to install identd to use this server *** Closing Link: myhost.udel.edu (Install identd) *** Connection closed from irc.mcs.net: Remote end closed connection Which is positively BAFFLING to me still. Possible changes, that might affect this are is my configuration of named. However I was operating under a fudged domain name the entire time that identd WAS working. Doing a kill -9 on the named process and a kill -HUP on the inetd process still yields no results. Any more ideas of places I can look? I even took a wild stab in the dark and compiled the older pident-2.8.1 port (as opposed to the current pident-2.8.5 port), and it made no difference.
