identd daemon

What's the most popular identd daemon for Linux? I need to install one on my server. Thanks.

Why not just use the one that comes with most linux installs (xinetd)? It does what you need it to, and it's already there.

How do you use it? I googled but it doesn't say how to make identd work.. Last edited by HD Fanatic; 07-15-2007 at 07:13 PM.

Check out the man pages for xinetd. Otherwise, you could always install Webmin and use their xinetd GUI to manage it.

Unless he typoed, He was asking about identd not inetd or xinetd. Anything your distribution includes will probably work. rpmforge has an build of oidentd.
