Branch: pkgsrc-2022Q4, Version: 20000201, Package name: fair-identd-20000201, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

This is Erik E. Fair's implementation of identd:

A proper identification protocol (RFC 1413) implementation,
providing all the utility, security, and authentication of
all other implementations of this protocol, without all the
expensive and pointless grovelling in /dev/kmem.

Careful design and software engineering makes this software
efficient, fast, compact, scalable, and completely maintenance
free.

Anyone who feels the need to use a daemon more complex than
this one should go read section 6 of RFC 1413 very carefully,
and think again.
