NAME

6       oidentd_masq.conf - oidentd IP masquerading/NAT configuration file.

DESCRIPTION

10       If  you are using IP masquerading or NAT, oidentd can optionally return
11       a username for connections from other machines.  Support  for  this  is
12       specified by calling oidentd with the -m (or --masq) flag and by creat‐
13       ing an /etc/oidentd_masq.conf file.
14
15       oidentd can also forward requests for an IP masqueraded  connection  to
16       the  machine  from which connection originates by way of the -f option.
17       This will only work if the host to which the connection is forwarded is
18       running oidentd with the -P (proxy) flag, or if the host's ident daemon
19       will return a valid reply regardless of the input supplied by  and  the
20       address of the host requesting the info (some ident daemons for windows
21       do this, maybe others).

FORMAT

25       <IP Address|Hostname>[/<Mask>] <Ident Response> <System Type>
26
27       The first field contains the IP address or the hostname  of  a  machine
28       that  IP  masquerades  through  the machine on which oidentd runs.  The
29       mask parameter can be either a network mask or a mask in CIDR notation.
30       A mask of 24 is equivalent to 255.255.255.0, a mask of 16 is equivalent
31       to 255.255.0.0, etc.
32
33       The second field specifies the  reply  that  oidentd  will  return  for
34       lookups  to  the  host  matching  the IP address specified in the first
35       parameter.
36
37       The third field specifies the operating system the machine matching the
38       first parameter is running.
