NAME

       ident - Ident protocol client

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tcl  8.3

       package require ident  ?0.42?

       ::ident::query socket ?callback?

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The   ident   package   provides   a   client   implementation	of  the  ident	protocol  as  defined  in  RFC	1413  (http://www.rfc-edi-
       tor.org/rfc/rfc1413.txt).

       ::ident::query socket ?callback?
	      This command queries the ident daemon on the remote side of the given socket, and returns the result of the query as  a  dictionary.
	      Interpreting the dictionary as list the first key will always be resp-type, and can have one of the values USERID, ERROR, and FATAL.
	      These response types have the following meanings:

	      USERID This indicates a successful response. Two more keys and associated values are returned, opsys, and user-id.

	      ERROR  This means the ident server has returned an error.  A second key named error is present whose value contains  the	error-type
		     field from the server response.

	      FATAL  Fatal errors happen when no ident server is listening on the remote side, or when the ident server gives a response that does
		     not conform to the RFC. A detailed error message is returned under the error key.
