Identd? Has anyone ported ircII? (Preferably 2.9 roof). I wanted a copy to run on my Telnetd (cause I have IRCD on there) on Windows NT... I tried it, but could only get it running with the -d switch (and I'd prefer without -d). It has to be a console mode, compatible with Telnetd, preferably a port done with Cygwin. Also, does anyone know of a good Identd for Telnetd? Since I run an NT server, I was hoping that maybe there was an Identd that... let's say, for example, a user called Doobie telnets in and runs ircII (see above). Is there an identd that, since it is an Cygwin app, could figure out that is Doobie and when the server requests his identd, return Doobie? Actually, I've ported BitchX which is EPIC compatible to Cygwin. I had to replace the term handling with my own for 2 reasons. 1. console.cc was/is a mess 2. Some semblance of speed was needed as BitchX is a ansi client. The newest coolview cygwin.dll has broken term handling as far as I'm concerned and it really needs to be fixed. I'd like to use it, because I can't have a builtin identd server as a thread using the older cygwin.dll. Signal handling was really broken and it seems to be hard to mix and match straight windows calls and cygwin. ftp://aurora.bridges.edu and download BitchX97-a5.zip... I think I even include a identd server. Btw the source for the unix version of BX will now compile on either Win95/NT with cygwin32 or unix systems.
