identd questions

Hi, I'd like to know your opinion about identd: First of all, is it worth run it or should I disable it? I've been reading a lot of things about it, and found that the matter is not consensual. Even found this in ident/auth RFC: "If you wouldn't run a 'finger' server due to privacy considerations you may not want to run this protocol." I've tryied to disable ident in my SuSE 7.0 box, without success. Commented the auth line in inetd.conf, turned off the option in rc.config, but it's still running.. maybe it's running through other program like sendmail or popper, is it? any ideas? Any comment/help would be appreciated. Thanks Pedro Marques
