Log Message:
Add a -L (lie brazenly) flag, to demonstrate the perils of proof by
assertion^W^W^W^W^W^W^Wprovide admins with a means of providing a
standard host-wide identd response. From the man page:
The -L<user name> option instructs identd to lie brazenly
about the identity of the user in question. You didn't
really intend to trust my assertion about who I was any-
way, right?
This flag provides a way for a site to support services
requiring the ident protocol while providing a standard
answer to all ident queries. All queries to identd will
respond with a host type of `OTHER' and a username of
<user name>.
