I just noticed today that my identd was not working. And I can't figure
out why. All the local tests seem to work fine.
netstat -n |grep ESTAB | ./itest
opsys 206.252.171.15 1914 209.69.36.227 119
opsys 206.252.171.15 1022 207.153.65.3 22
opsys 206.252.171.15 1061 206.165.111.241 6667
[opsys@pinkfloyd 07-26-1998 3:45pm] ~>telnet localhost 113
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.hit.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
1921 , 113
1921 , 113 : USERID : UNIX :opsys
Connection closed by foreign host.
But for some reason non local lookups for instance, from irc, fail with
NO-USER. And the telnet test to liu.se fails as well.
Connecting to Ident server at 206.252.171.15...
Querying for lport 49176, fport 114....
Reading response data...
Error response is:
Lport........ 49176
Fport........ 114
Error........ NO-USER
Connection closed by foreign host.
Something has obviously changed I just don't know what.
Any ideas?
Chris
