defaults to the memory space of the normally running kernel.
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR inetd.conf (5)
.SH NOTES
.B Identd
uses the
.I LOG_DAEMON
syslogd(8) facility to log messages. This is the correct thing to do
since
.I LOG_AUTH
is supposed to be used by authorization related programs, not authentication
related ones such as
.B identd.
.SH BUGS
The handling of fatal errors could be better.
