The tell them to install midentd?
Description: identd replacement with masquerading support.
An identd replacement with masquerading support. With your average
identd on a masquerading firewall, if an ident request comes in for a
masqueraded connection, it will return 'ERROR : NO-USER' or something
along those lines. This may be quite irritating at times, with, for
example, IRC servers that won't let you in if they don't get a valid
ident reply.
