I'm trying to set up BitchX client on Redhat v9.0 system.  I can run BX ok,
but it cannot connect to any servers.  I'm told that ident may be the
problem.  I'm told that ident runs on port 113.  I cannot find anything in
/etc/init.d/ that refers to ident or auth.  ps -ef does not show any ident
or auth running either.

Is ident a service that I need to run in order to get authenticated from the
irc server?  I have a router on my home network, and I've made sure that I
am forwarding port 113 to my linux box, so that shouldn't be a problem.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Regards,
Darryl
