 Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 8:05 pm Post subject: psyBNC and Ident |
 |
|
Hey,
I am currently running a psyBNC on my shell but i have one little problem. The server im connecting to (GameSurge) needs me to run IDENT for each client connecting. I can't seem to figure out how to get IDENT to run with my psyBNC clients.
Any ideas as to how I can do this?
(My shell is Linux).
Thanks.

Ok im having problems with the Oidentd.
I get this: Fatal: Couldn't drop privileges. What does that mean and what do I have to do?
Command:
./oidentd -m -u crave -a 66.96.248.104 -i -p 1337
If I used 133 it says could not open socket. |

I'm guessing your have root access?
oidentd is a daemon; /etc/oidentd.conf is edited (for fine tuning).
In a terminal:

you have to use port 113, maybe iam wrong, but all IRCd's are looking for user ident on that port, so if you run it on other port, its useless |

Ya, I dont have root, im using a shell account. Must I use root to install OIDENTD?
I get this
| Quote: |
./oidentd -m -a 66.96.248.104 -i -p 113
Fatal: Unable to setup listening socket
|
My Provider says that 113 port is not being used but I still cannot open a socket on it. Whats is up? Any Ideas? |

You have to be root to open listening port below 1024 |

Oh ok, thanks a lot. I will let my provider know.
P.S.
Once the ident is running with ./oidentd start all I have to do is run psybnc again (its compiled with OIDENTD) and it will automatically work with OIDENTD correct? |
