Hello, I just installed the pidentd package from ftp.freebsd.org on my 2.2-RELEASE system. I should point out that I upgraded from 2.1.7 and used some of my old configuration files. Here's the situation: I've put the line: ident stream tcp wait root /usr/local/sbin/identd identd -w -t120 in /etc/inetd.conf. I restarted the inetd daemon, and tested it using a friends system that has a wrapper installed and irc. Both would not pick up on the username. The daemon does run however. So, per the documentation, I telnet'ed to port 113 of my localhost, found out the outgoing port and got this message: 1026 , 113 : ERROR : NO-USER What could be causing this? I've searched through the mailing list archives, and found someone who had the same problem, but I couldn't find a response from anyone. Thanks for your time, Jay jayrich@in.net
