NAME
idlookup - identify the user of a particular TCP connection
SYNOPSIS
idlookup host-or-ip-number local-port foreign-port
DESCRIPTION
idlookup can be used to identify the user at the remote end of a TCP connection, assuming the host at
the other end is running an Identification Server.
host-or-ip-number is the name of the host at the other end of the connection, or its IP address.
local-port and foreign-port are the port numbers, or service names of the ports at the two ends of the con-
nection.
WARNING
Note that the references to local-port and foreign-port follow the terminology in RFC931, and are from the
point of view of the server rather than the user.
