nullidentd (bare minimum identd server)
|
|
|
|
nullidentd is intended to be a bare minimum identd server. It
|
|
implements the auth protocol from RFC 1413. This protocol
|
|
is used to identify active TCP connections. It depends on the
|
|
trustworthiness of the server and as such is completely useless as
|
|
a method of identification.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, some applications still require that an identd
|
|
server is available to query about incoming connections. nullidentd
|
|
implements the absolute minimum server to allow these applications to
|
|
function. It returns a fake response for any request.
|
|
|
|
nullidentd is typically invoked from inetd. The following is a typical
|
|
/etc/inetd.conf example:
|
|
|
|
auth stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/sbin/nullidentd nullidentd
