Hey all...

I've been making a whole mess of changes to my system lately, and
something, somewhere has risen up to give me troubles :)

In the past week, I've installed and configured named and apache (with
modssl).  Everything was going great until i rebooted last night.

I wanted to hop onto irc for a bit (using ircII), and well, I'm getting a
response from the servers saying that I need to have my sysadmin install
identd.  The thing is that I've had pidentd installed for 2+ months now and
it WAS working flawlessly.  I'm running v3.3 right now.  Nothign I found in
the archives seemed to be the cure.

Beyond that, I had a problem with /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh.  From what
I understand, the modssl package sets up the SSL portion of apache.  The
keys, however, require a passphrase in order to activate them.  When the
system reboots and the apache.sh script tries to run, the out (per the
script) gets directed to /dev/null.  One of the thigns that it redirects is
the prompt asking for the passphrase.  Is there a way around this?

As for my named stuff, I'll go back and continue in the thread I already
started :)

I've been trying figure out that identd problem, but I'm baffled.  I have
even tried deinstalling and reinstall pident and ircII on the off chance
that somethign got corrupt somewhere.  I could just let it be, but I use
irc as a dirt cheap way of talking to home :)

Thanks in advance!!!
John
