[ILUG] Re: Error in /var/log/messages??

[Jeremy Smyth]

My guess it's the Auth line section down at the bottom... 
Dunno what /usr/sbin/in.identd does.... anyone?
I don't have one in my /usr/sbin... so I commented this out. Happened when
connecting to some websites using netscape, especially fancy ones, so it's
probably a certificate or javascript watching thing.
