All I've seen identd do so far is cause bogus servers to insist that
machines which are not UNIX (tm) are not allowed to use them, even
when those machines are perfectly capable of giving out useful data
about who's who...
Not very useful, IMHO, a protocol which (in practice) demands either lies
or expensive proprietary software.
