I don't use midentd... I use the stock 6.2 identd. Everything seems to
work...
Anyone want to let me know what else I need to make the firewall better, I'd
be glad to hear it.
I'm also running portsentry, tripwire, logwatch, and logcheck behind the
firewall, as well as ssh
and hav most people blockd from most ports... (DNS deactivated, too)
