This program is standalone 'fake' ident daemon. This program does
not fork() but is configured to handle up to 20 concurrent connections.
Since one connection should not last long, if all 20 connections are
in use, the next connection will close the oldest connection data
has been read. This way this program is not very vulnerable to so
called `denial of service' attack, thus making this ideal "identd"
to be used in a firewall, IP masquerading hosts etc.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

When there is a do-install target, do not use a post-install target, do
everything at once. Sometime, rename post-install into a options helper
target.
I did not fix ports that were such a mess that I could not figure out
what they really wanted to do. I also did not change ports that had
some version of an auto-plist code in post-install, for the same reason.

Include source file in the ports tree; use rc script
- The original distfile URL seems to be quite unreliable. The only
distfile (a single .c file) is small and hence included in the
ports tree.
- Use a proper rc startup script.

Remove more tags from pkg-descr files fo the form:
- Name
em@i.l
or variations thereof. While I'm here also fix some whitespace and other
formatting errors, including moving WWW: to the last line in the file.
New Port: security/fakeident
Fake Identd is a tool that replies with a standard answer
to all incoming identd requests on a host, making it nearly
perfect for a masquerading router.
