I see them in /var/log/messages, and sometimes I see them on my console screen: Aug 5 12:29:13 canoe identd[24171]: Connection from localhost Aug 5 12:29:13 canoe kernel: in.identd(24171): unaligned trap at 0000020000183c4c: 000000011ffff574 2d 10 Aug 5 12:29:13 canoe identd[24171]: from: 127.0.0.1 ( localhost ) for: 2032, 25Aug 5 12:29:13 canoe kernel: in.identd(24171): unaligned trap at 0000020000183c4c: 000000011ffff574 2d 10 Aug 5 12:29:13 canoe last message repeated 2 times This is on RedHat 6.0 (fully upgraded) with kernel 2.2.10
Do you still see unaligned traps with the latest pidentd-3.0.7 from Raw Hide (Note that this is now a standalone daemon so you will have to comment out the line for identd in /etc/inetd.conf and kill -HUP <inetd pid>) ------- Additional Comments From 08/23/99 14:19 ------- I haven't seen any unaligned traps since downloading and installing the new pidentd from rawhide two days ago. Formerly I was seeing 4 to 8 per day.
OK, I'll consider this closed. Please reopen if the unaligned traps reappear.
