Notes:
1) HP-UX 7.0 doesn't support running streams based services from
Inetd with the "wait" option (and the "-w" flag to Pidentd).
It also has problems with starting stuff as user "sys" from Inetd.
(It doesn't correctly set the group id to "sys") so I suggest you
either starts it as user "root" and use the "-u" and "-g" flags
to setuid and setgid itself to user "sys", group "sys", or do a
'chgrp sys in.identd' and then a 'chmod g+s in.identd' and start
it as user "sys" from Inetd.
2) These systems also doesn't support running streams based
services from Inetd with the "wait" option.
3) See notes in the READMEs/README.<machine-type> specific files.
-- Quoted from README by Peter Eriksson in the pidentd-2.3 distribution
Current distribution contains a directory of README files that give
details for building pidentd on several architectures.
