Req: command to enable/disable ident checks

hi everyone..

ive looked aorund but cant find a module to do this >>>

in unreal conf you can enable ident checks..
so clients that dont respond to ident requests cant connect..

this is only configurable in the conf.

can someone make a module so you can enable/disable this option
from inside irc..

i think this would help in some cases of bot attacks..
simply turning on ident checks would stop the majority of false users..
maybe some other normal users also... but you can turn it off
when the attack is over.. atleast some clients will still be able to connect..

where as if you use a defcon no one can connect.. :/

is this module viable or not?

the problem is, when its changed u need /restart the server(s) as a result they will all go down

is that price worth paying?

ummm
