Topic: Oidentd - real Ident masquerading

[Metin Yaylacioglu]

routes ident request to every client (works like every masquerading) so a user can changes his ident localy and the server will let them pass to/from internet

[Franck]

The identd daemon used by e-smith is also able to do that... but not by default. You'll have to modify /etc/identd.masq, replacing userXX by the character '*' and specifying "RELAY" as the platform...

You may have a look at /usr/doc/pidentd-2.8.5/identd.masq

[Bill Talcott]

It looks as though the template for that is at /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/identd.masq/50localaddresses.

You could just use a custom template and change the line near the end with

$OUT .= "$ip\tuser$i\t\tUNIX\n";

to

$OUT .= "$ip\t*\t\tRELAY\n";

right?
