[ILUG] in.dentd

[Firestarter]

i dont know why but when i check what processes are running their are
multiple in.identd processes:
nobody    4273  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4276  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4277  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4278  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4279  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4280  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4281  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4282  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4283  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4284  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o
root      4285  0.0  2.0  1368  636 ?        S    22:34   0:00 in.identd
-e -o

here's what i guess is the offending line of inetd.conf:
auth    stream  tcp     wait    root    /usr/sbin/tcpd in.identd -e -o

is their anything wrong with that? and why is user nobody the owner of one
of identd's processes?

cheers in advance :)
