[NTLUG:Discuss] Setting up Identd for IRC on a RH 8.0 box

[Wayne Dahl]

Ok guys, next question.  I was trying to get onto IRC using X-Chat (and
KSirc) to get to a sawfish channel and kept getting booted off the
servers saying my identd isn't working on my machine.

The web pages I've seen seem to address other versions of the OS.  So,
how do I configure my box to provide Identd for the IRC clients?  I have
an xident.conf file, but it doesn't have any of the stuff in it the web
sites mention and xinetd runs on startup.

Thanks,

Wayne
