identd?
 

Something told me I needed to install identd, because too many users were abusing irc. Could someone please give me more info. on that. Thanks!!!

Go get Oidentd ... or do a search in the forums for "identd install"
i had the same trouble gettin on EFnet. No ident response. get oidentd and run it b4 u get on irc ...and you'll be fine. good luck
