       The  ident  package  provides  a  client  implementation  of  the  ident  protocol as defined in RFC 1413
       (http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1413.txt).

       ::ident::querysocket ?callback?
              This command queries the ident daemon on the remote side of the  given  socket,  and  returns  the
              result  of  the  query  as  a  dictionary.  Interpreting the dictionary as list the first key will
              always be resp-type, and can have one of the values USERID,  ERROR,  and  FATAL.   These  responsetypes have the following meanings:

              USERID This  indicates  a  successful  response. Two more keys and associated values are returned,
                     opsys, and user-id.

              ERROR  This means the ident server has returned an error.  A second key  named  error  is  present
                     whose value contains the error-type field from the server response.

              FATAL  Fatal errors happen when no ident server is listening on the remote side, or when the ident
                     server  gives  a  response  that  does  not conform to the RFC. A detailed error message is
                     returned under the error key.
