What is IdentProtocol?

IdentProtocol

IdentProtocol is a handy application that works as a Windows service. What it does is listen for ident requests and responds with the correct information. It comes with a standard installer, but here’s the catch—it doesn’t have a graphical user interface (GUI). Instead, it runs quietly in the background and can be set up by tweaking an INI file.

How IdentProtocol Works

So, when an ident request comes in, this service jumps into action! It responds with details like the current user account and, if you want, even the computer name. If you happen to have more than one instance of this service running at once, no worries! IdentProtocol knows how to work together with itself to make sure all requests are handled correctly.

Configuring Your Service

You can also configure IdentProtocol to run independently or only when a specific program you choose is active. This gives you flexibility based on your needs!

Getting Started After Installation

Once you’ve installed the software, you'll find some EXE files along with an INI configuration file right in the root folder. These files let you run the service, adjust settings, and reload it if you've made any changes.

Tweaking Settings in INI File

The INI configuration file has various entries that you can change to tweak how the program behaves. For example, you can set how quickly connections should be released, decide what info gets included in responses, and even add names of processes that need monitoring.
