Gordon -
Thanks, i just changed the inetd entry for identd to the nowait.<limit>
as you suggested. Hope that will resolve the problem. I believe that the
ident connections for the most part are coming from BB (Big Brother)
when bb goes out to check all the boxes on my LAN but i cant prove that
yet...workin on that. Which RPM are you referring to? identd?
indentd-v2?
Thanks again, as always
