Try this line:
auth    stream  tcp     nowait  root    internal        auth -d na

Do a 'man inetd' and have search on 'fallback' to see the details.

I'm trying to get my identd server setup correctly so I can chat on
IRC.

Port 113 is open on my firewall, rc.conf is running inetd, and inetd
has identd uncommented.  This is the line in my inetd.conf file:
auth   stream  tcp     wait    root    /usr/local/sbin/identd  identd

I have pidentd installed via ports but when I connect to EFNet...it
says no ident was found.



Further, none of the identd servers (pidentd, oidentd) seem to have a
man page.

This is incredibly frustrating.
