Notes:
	1) HP-UX 7.0 doesn't support running streams based services from
	   Inetd with the "wait" option (and the "-w" flag to Pidentd).

	   It also has problems with starting stuff as user "sys" from Inetd.
	   (It doesn't correctly set the group id to "sys") so I suggest you
           either starts it as user "root" and use the "-u" and "-g" flags
           to setuid and setgid itself to user "sys", group "sys", or do a
	   'chgrp sys in.identd' and then a 'chmod g+s in.identd' and start
	   it as user "sys" from Inetd.

	2) These systems also doesn't support running streams based
	   services from Inetd with the "wait" option. 
	   
	3) See notes in the READMEs/README.<machine-type> specific files.
