I have downloaded and installed the xinetd update for RH7 last night I then also went and grabbed the latest identd. After installation I went to my router which now has forwarding enabled in the nat table to port 113. The router is set to 10.0.0.2. This is an ADSL connection at 640kbps. The router is a Cisco 675 with 2.3.5 CBOS My outside port wan0-0 Outside is set to a static ip at my isp. >From "show nat command" "The Global IP is fake for obvious reasons" Local IP :Port Glocal IP:Port Timer Flags Proto Interface 10.0.0.2:113 177.76.20.140:113 0 0x0041 tcp eth0 wan0-0 My questions are: 1. Why wouldn't the above entry not allow the irc server I connect with to read my system as identd enabled? 2. If my configuration of xinetd and identd is wrong, how would I go about removing xinetd and identd to do a fresh install? Here is a snipet of log from the irc server "sprynet.us.galaxynet.org on port 6667: AUTH:*** Looking up your hostname AUTH:*** Checking for ident server AUTH:*** Checking for open SOCKS server AUTH:*** Found your hostname AUTH:*** Erroneous identification response AUTH:*** No SOCKS server found Doing a /whois nobody1 comes up with ~nobody@my address So anyone that can help this irc less chap (for over three weeks now), would be greatly appreciated.
