Yes, sure. But please use the attached file instead. To apply it, follow
these steps:

1. Save the attachment as a file, e.g. ident.c.diff
2. Change to the anubis directory
3. Run

      patch -p0 < ident.c.diff

   If everything goes right, you will see the following message

      patching file src/ident.c

4. Recompile Anubis

Sergey
