  24 ;;; Commentary:
  25
  26 ;; This module allows you to run a local identd server on port 8113.
  27 ;; You will need to set up DNAT to bind 113->8113, or use a proxy.
  28
  29 ;; To use this module, add identd to `erc-modules' and run
  30 ;; `erc-update-modules'.
  31
  32 ;; Here is an example /etc/inetd.conf rule that forwards identd
  33 ;; traffic to port 8113.  You will need simpleproxy installed for it
  34 ;; to work.
