I'm not sure about oidentd as i've not used it, but as you've not gotten 
any response here i would suggest (if you haven't already) expanding on 
the exact problem that you are having with it, i.e error messages etc. 
Or there are other ways to get the same result; most (good) IRC networks 
have a host cloaking ability, either by request or by setting the 
relevant user modes. Please consult the IRC network's websites for details.

[ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu Server, oidentd and eggdrops

2008-02-02 Thread whoredom
Hey,
I have been trying to get an identd daemon running on my Ubuntu Server so
they can identify with IRC servers (some of which require it to connect). I
run a miau IRC bouncer and some eggdrops, each with their own account. I
tried out oidentd as it gets mentioned a lot in the threads I have seen, but
installation, running and configuration has not seen any results.

Has anyone got any tips? Or managed to get it running themselves? I hear
there are issues with identd because I use a router that includes a firewall
(the port is forwarded to the correct machine). Is spoofing an option? How
do I spoof?

Many thanks
