minidentd 0.14

minidentd provides a tiny IDENT server. minidentd is a tiny IDENT server that implements RFC 1413. It includes no networking code, leaving it to a super-server. It can be used in embedded systems, and features user-controlled and randomly generated answers. minidentd reads a series of IDENT requests on stdin and answers them on stdout. It logs what its doing on stderr. The environment variables xLOCALIP and xREMOTEIP, where x is the value of the PROTO environment variable, must contain the IDENT server address and the IDENT client address, respectively. minidentd does not contact the network directly. Its meant to run under a super-server like tcpserver. Options -v : verbose mode. Log queries and replies.. -n : send ERROR : HIDDEN-USER replies if the user has a .ident file in his home directory. -i : user-defined answers. The first 14 chars of the users .ident file, up to EOF or newline, are used instead of the user name. If the file exists and is empty, send ERROR : HIDDEN-USER. If it doesnt exist, send a normal reply. -r : send random replies. -y file : valid with -n or -i. Use file instead of .ident. -t timeout : close connection after timeout seconds without a client request.. minidentd
