.TH ident2 8 GNU
.\" NAME should be all caps, SECTION should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection
.\" other parms are allowed: see man(7), man(1)
.SH NAME
ident2 \- An advanced ident daemon
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ident2
.I "[options]"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
ident2 is an advanced ident daemon, which can run as an inetd service or
on it's own. It has various features such as user defined and random
replies, extensive logging, and full administrative control.
.PP
.SH OPTIONS
The program follows the usual GNU syntax command-line unless it is
unsupported on your system. GNU options begin with two dashes(`-') and have
much more descriptive names.
.TP
.B \-h, \-\-help
Show summary of options.
.TP
.B \-u, \-\-usage
Shows example command lines
.TP
.B \-v, \-\-version
Show version information
.TP
.B \-l, \-\-license
Show licensing information
.TP
.B \-a, \-\-force\-inetd
Force inetd mode, if autodetection isn't working.
.TP
.B \-d, \-\-force\-daemon
Force standalone daemon, if autodetection isn't working.
.TP
.B \-i, \-\-use\-user\-ident
Allow user defined ident replies. Just do a
.B echo 'ident ar' > ~/.ident
to change your ident reply.
.TP
.B \-y, \-\-user\-reply\-file
File ident2 should look for in user's homedir for replies. Default is ~/.ident
.TP
.B \-n, \-\-allow\-noident\-file
Disable replies for user if user has a ~/.noident file. This behavior is disabled by default.
.TP
.B \-o, \-\-client\-timeout
Clients timeout after this many seconds
.TP
.B \-s, \-\-dont\-change\-uid
Ident2 will normally try to change it's uid to something less privileged if
it finds it's uid to be 0. This option disables this behavior altogether.
.TP
.B \-r, \-\-always\-random
Always send a random reply, regardless of what kind of request the client
made. This is useful for abusing the ident protocol as well as assisting
outgoing IP masqueraded connections.
.TP
.B \-m, \-\-daemon\-maxclients
Daemon-only: Accept no more than this many connections at a time.
.TP
.B \-p, \-\-daemon\-port
Daemon-only: Bind this port, instead of 'auth' aka 113
