ident2
ident2(8) System Manager's Manual ident2(8)
NAME
ident2 - An advanced ident daemon
SYNOPSIS
ident2 [options]
DESCRIPTION
ident2 is an advanced ident daemon, which can run as an inetd service or on it's own. It has various features such as user defined and ran-
dom replies, extensive logging, and full administrative control.
OPTIONS
The program follows the usual GNU syntax command-line unless it is unsupported on your system. GNU options begin with two dashes(`-') and
have much more descriptive names.
-h, --help
Show summary of options.
-u, --usage
Shows example command lines
-v, --version
Show version information
-l, --license
Show licensing information
-a, --force-inetd
Force inetd mode, if autodetection isn't working.
-d, --force-daemon
Force standalone daemon, if autodetection isn't working.
-i, --use-user-ident
Allow user defined ident replies. Just do a echo 'ident ar' > ~/.ident to change your ident reply.
-y, --user-reply-file
File ident2 should look for in user's homedir for replies. Default is ~/.ident
-n, --allow-noident-file
Disable replies for user if user has a ~/.noident file. This behavior is disabled by default.
-o, --client-timeout
Clients timeout after this many seconds
-s, --dont-change-uid
Ident2 will normally try to change it's uid to something less privileged if it finds it's uid to be 0. This option disables this
behavior altogether.
-r, --always-random
Always send a random reply, regardless of what kind of request the client made. This is useful for abusing the ident protocol as
well as assisting outgoing IP masqueraded connections.
-m, --daemon-maxclients
Daemon-only: Accept no more than this many connections at a time.
-p, --daemon-port
Daemon-only: Bind this port, instead of 'auth' aka 113
