Dear maintainer,
debian/postinst installs nullidentd into inetd:
update-inetd --group INFO --add 'ident\t\tstream\ttcp\tnowait\tnobody\t/usr/sbin/nullidentd\tnullidentd'
IPv6 support is trivial to add; just add a line with tcp6 instead of tcp:
update-inetd --group INFO --add 'ident\t\tstream\ttcp\tnowait\tnobody\t/usr/sbin/nullidentd\tnullidentd'
update-inetd --group INFO --add 'ident\t\tstream\ttcp6\tnowait\tnobody\t/usr/sbin/nullidentd\tnullidentd'
Regards,
Hi,
since nullident was salvaged by in the Bug of the Day[1] initiative I
tried to apply your suggested patch[2]. I might have misinterpreted your
suggestion. If I uncomment this line[2] this leads to errors in postinst.
Feel free to provide a MR which properly implements your suggestion.
Kind regards
Andreas.
