From the README: "oidentd is an ident (rfc1413 compliant) daemon that runs on Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris. oidentd can handle IP masqueraded/NAT connections on Linux, FreeBSD (ipf only) and OpenBSD. oidentd has a flexible mechanism for specifying ident responses. Users can be granted permission to specify their own ident responses. Responses can be specified according to host and port pairs." FreeBSD's inetd has a built-in ident service which can also generate bogus responses. Please see the TODO file for more information on why only ipf is supported under FreeBSD. Mark Laws mdl@60hz.org
