Following, are FreeBSD ports, or other *BSD related projects, I created, maintain, host, or worked on. I host them here on BSDforge in the net category.

widentd

RFC1413 auth/identd daemon providing a fixed fake reply.

widentd is a small ident/RFC1413 deamon which provides a fixed (and fake) auth reply, regardless of the IP/port pair quoted.

It's intended use is on firewalls, and NAT machines – where you may want to simply syphon off auth-requests from, for example, IRC servers.

See widentd8(8) for USAGE, and additional capabilities.

Installation

Using the FreeBSD ports system:
cd /usr/ports/net/widentd make install clean
Using the FreeBSD pkg system:
pkg install net/widentd

VERSION

widentd is currently at version 1.04.
