pidentd
I would also think something like inetd or xinetd would be good. Identd
should not need to run all the time, letting (x)inetd fire it up as
needed would be better.
Hot tip: consider carefully how much you reveal about your machine
through the ident service.
Indeed that can be a problem. I have pidentd disabled, but I can use IRC
because I've opened port 113 (auth/ident) in my firewall. If the port is
closed but accessible, most IRC servers will allow the connection.
