IN.IDENTTESTD(8) Library functions IN.IDENTTESTD(8)NAME
in.identtestd - a small daemon that can be used to test Ident servers
SYNOPSIS
in.identtestd
DESCRIPTION
in.identtestd is a small daemon (to be started from inetd) that does an ident lookup on you if you telnet into it. Can be used to verify
that your Ident server is working correctly.
The source code can be found in the debian libident source package, as ident-tester.c.
EXAMPLE
A typical entry in /etc/inetd.conf would be:
9999 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.identtestd in.identtestd
With the above entry in place and active, execute "telnet hostname 9999" from either this system, or another system. It should show some-
thing like:
Trying hostname...
Connected to hostname.
Escape character is '^]'.

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.
