Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nullidentd

'man nullidentd' lists syntax as thus:

nullidentd [uid]

Additionally, default supplied /etc/inetd.conf line is:

ident          stream  tcp     nowait  nobody  /usr/sbin/nullidentd
nullidentd

These are both wrong. Correct syntax is:

nullidentd [-u uid]

Daemon always returns hard-coded default of 'foobar' if suggested
(wrong) syntax is used.
