[Sussex] ident protocol

[Nic James Ferrier]

I never really understood IRC. I understand ident protocol even less.

I want to talk to irc.freenode.net but it now requires ident
authentication.

The client I want to connect from is behind a NAT router. ident
requires that it connect to the host as discovered by a PTR lookup?

What's the right approach for this? Anyone know?
