Description: Query ident to determine the owner of a TCP network process
This package is a simple PERL script to query the ident service (113/TCP)
in order to determine the owner of the process listening on each TCP port of
a target system.
.
This can help to prioritise target service during a pentest (you might want
to attack services running as root first).
Alternatively, the list of usernames gathered can be used for password
guessing attacks on other network services.
