didentd is a RfC1423 (identd) server for Linux written with security
in mind. It is designed to run with Dan Bernsteins daemontools and
uscpi-tcp. You can get this tools at http://cr.yp.to/.
The server runs chrooted under on an unprivileged id.
didentd does not send an username but an encrypted audit token to the
client. This token contains all information about the requested
connection:
* userid owning the connection
* source ip:port
* destination ip:port
* a timestamp
If a remote admin has a complain about something from your machine he
can send this audit token back to you, you can pipe it through
didentd-decrypt and find out which user did the connection.
didentd-decrypt outputs all information from the audit token.
There is didentd-name which returns the username of the uid owning the
requested connection instead of an audit token. This is the classical
ident approach.
There is didentd-static which returns a static string instead of a
audit token.
