hmmm...i get the same thing...people with userids of like... "fjrub east@ux1.cyberenet.net" or "wishbones south@ux1.cyberenet.net" ..according to sammy's reply this would happen if ident couldn't figure out the operating system of the user...but there are other users (including me) who log onto the mud and everything works out correctly... i think what may be happening is that these people are using programs like screen or tintin...i guess this could hide where the person is actually logging on from...shrug.. siv "Fads may come and go, but psychosis is forever."
