IPv6?
How about an IPv6 version? If I get some time I will look at adding this.
patch which adds a makefile and some other things
I've created a patch against version 1.7 of fake identd which adds a makefile and fixes some potential problems. You can find it here: www.vanheusden.com/Lin...
Exactly what I needed
This identd server was the easiest thing to install! I was up and running in literally under a minute. I actually compiled it on OpenBSD and it works great. Now I have it set at the ident server for my entire network, so everyone can use IRC. If you're looking for a ident server to simply return a value, this is the one to get. The quickest and simplest you can get!
Makefile and init script
I made a little Makefile and init script for
fakeident, so it's nearly auto-installing.
You can find the stuff at hangout.de/fakeidentd/ (hangout.de/fakeidentd/...)
This solved my problem
I have a masqurading firewall and this fixed my troubles. Simple and sweet - worth a try!
