>Description:
Comment:	IPv6 capable RfC 1413 identd
Descr:	
   This  is  a program that implements the RFC1413 identification server.
   It  was  very  much  inspired by Dan Bernstein's original 'authd' (but
   unlike  that  program  doesn't  use  'netstat'  to  get  some  of  the
   information)  It  uses the kernel information directly. (And is due to
   that  fact  a  lot faster). Dan has now written another version of the
   'authd'  daemon that uses his 'kstuff' to read the kernel information.
   Unlike  that  daemon,  this  will  use  only normally available kernel
   access  functions  (and  is  due to that more limited in the different
   machines  it  support). Please note that this daemon used to be called
   pauthd  but  has  changed  name to better reflect what it does (and to
   conform to the new RFC).

pkg is at http://hangout.de/pidentd.tar.gz, and is reported to compile
and run on 1.5/sparc, 1.5/i386 and 1.5.1b/i386
