hi, i've been trying and reading all i could but i simply cant make it work properly.
what i have: fedora core 3, kernel 2.6.11 (had 2.6.2 or so before and it didnt work either)
what i did:
1- installed psybnc with oidentd support
2- installed oidentd according to several faqs on the net (eg. http://www.psybnc.info/faq.html#q15 )
3- i added the group 'nogroup'
and now it comes:
4- if i _dont_ run oidentd, clients on irc going through psybnc proxy get '~userX@myhost.com' which is perfectly ok.
if i start oidentd from _init_ then it runs as /usr/sbin/oidentd -m -u nobody -g nogroup and the client gets this
'my_unix_account_name@myhost.com'
if i _dont_ start it from init but only the file itself from /usr/sbin then the clients get this 'user1@myhost.com' for
_all_ clients going through the proxy psybnc.
and of course i would need them to get 'userX@myhost.com' .. so that all get an ident response according to their
specified ident..
i wish someone could help me..
have a nice day,
moris
