Re: telnetd can't get ttys



identd would not reply to requests for ident.  happened i believe after i
upgraded from hamm to slink.  i believe slink by default set ident to user
nobody, and identd didnt work, i tried several different ident daemons and
all were the same, did not work..till i changed the user to root (had the
same problem on about 5 machines after doing an upgrade to slink).  i
think i posted to the list about this when i had the problem(~6-8 months
ago) 

yeah..found it in the archives

To: debian-user@lists.debian.org 
   Subject: identd -- doesn't work in slink. 
   From: "POP3 for aphro.." <nate@galactica.firetrail.com> 
   Date: Mon, 26 Apr 1999 17:38:56 -0700 (PDT) 

from the message then the error i was getting was:

in.identd: getpeername(): Socket operation on non-socket

changing the user from nobody to root solved the problem.
