Hey

I got this huge problem with my oidentd.
Had tried for the last 2 weeks to sort it out, but cant get it working.
So hoping some of you could help.


My box is a Debian, running on a 450mhz, 128mb, 4,7GB, IBM Thinkpad
Notebook.
Had installed psybnc with oidentd support, and oidentd using apt-get.

My oidentd.conf file:
# Configuration for oidentd
# see oidentd.conf(5)
#
default {
default {
allow spoof
allow spoof_all
allow spoof_privport
}
}

# you may want to hide root connections
#user "test" {
# default {
# force reply "roogon"
# }
#}

When i look into the /var/log/daemon.log i see:

Mar 27 12:46:46 server oidentd[23909]: Connection from
bandit.probe-networks.de (82.96.64.2):4800
Mar 27 12:46:46 server oidentd[23909]: [bandit.probe-networks.de] 12764 ,
6667 : ERROR : NO-USER

So the IRC networks can connect, but it cant spoof. Just returing "NO-USER".


Please help me out.

Never used it, but fakeidentd may be what you need, it's a lot easier to get
working, but don't have that much options.

Hey thanks for the respond.

Just installed it, and wow it works..
But its returing a static username (default set to 'username'), couldnt it
spoof like oidentd does?

Thanks

As I said before, it don't have much of options, if you want to change
username that it will respond, then add it to the line where you start fakeidentd

fakeidentd mightyuserwhodontlikeidents

and the reported user will be 'mightyuserwhodontlikeidents'.

Yes i understand that.

But could it not return a random numeric thing?
or spoof the userid

No, it's not made that way, it does only sppof with only one username (remeber
that the user don't have to exist on your system). It will still not give out
any information about the users you have on your system.

If you want, you could modify the code, think it's not mokre than 3-4kb large
and set a random numeric string.

I couldnt, because cant code c++ or whats it code in.

Its driving me nuts

It's only c, so it's not that difficult and could be a good reason why to
start look into coding

http://remus.rutgers.edu/~rhoads/Code/code.html

And the worst that can happen is that your code don't work


//Aho

Then you are always there, php isn't that far from C IMHO, but you coulr write
a PHP script that works as identd and use xinetd to power it.

Or just take it easy, sit infront of telly and know that fakeidentd will work
as it is.
