Hi All,
Once again I apologize if this has been asked before, I will be glad if
/ when Red Hat gets the search fixed for the group.
I am in the process of setting up Dansguardian to monitor internet
access. I installed Dansguardian and configured my client to use it as
a proxy (port 8080). The access.log file did show that internet access
was made. However, it did not tell me the username making the access.
I am assuming that is the " - " in the log. Through a bit of searching
I read that I needed to have identd running. I was not familiar with
identd so I did a quick search online. First site up as Setting Up
Identd from 1998, I figured the instructions hadn't changed that much
(see link below).
- I did modify the etc/services to contain ident 113/tcp auth
- I modified etc/xinetd.conf (instead of inetd.conf) to contain ident
stream tcp nowait nobody /etc/identd identd
- commented out the auth line in etc/services.
WHen the instructions came to commenting the auth line of inetd.conf, I
didn't know where else to look, I checked xinetd.conf and was not listed.
To check and see if it worked, I brought back up my client and attempted
access once more. Same occured.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Mike
