   I'll test this tonight. It's important that the ident client not hang if
   the remote machine has port 113 open, but never sends a response. I got
   bit on that one porting xinetd.

Hmmm... I think the code has a 500-second timeout built into it.
That's a bit extravagant, but NCSA has the same...
