Description

Ident protocol requests can be answered by a daemon that reports local user identity information.

This package is useful only for systems that still need identd behavior for legacy network services. It is a background daemon, not an interactive user directory.

Identification daemons can expose user information over the network. Configure access rules and firewall policy carefully.
