Hello,
	Has anyone installed the identd properly on their next system?
I have made several attempts.  My entries look like this
/etc/services (yes its niloaded):
ident   113/tcp auth
/etc/inetd.conf:
ident     stream  tcp  nowait  kmem   /usr/etc/identd    identd

I tried sys instead of kmem, I tried setgid kmem on identd.  I also tried
setgid sys on identd.  Everytime I try the test program I get this:

system says host is 129.32.1.21
authuser says host is 129.32.1.21
system says username is pcwood
authd cannot figure out your username

Any clues?
