I believe you have to get the Identd module, and add it to your disk.
There has been lots of abuse from the @home network and other highspeed
services. The abuse comes from improperly configured wingate boxes that
become havens for spammers and other abusers. So what the sysadmins
started doing on the IRC servers is loginning who was connecting. To do
this, they querry and Ident service. mIRC and the like have an Ident
service. However, the IRC servers can't see it behind the LEAF
firewall. So now you add the Identd service on the LEAF box and the IRC
servers are happy. I saw some instructions on lrp.c0wz.com. You may
want to search for Ident in the mail archieves.
