I guess I need to make this clearer.

1. In general: compile the utility NOT to use identd/tcpd/wrappers
(pam ?).

2. For VS-NAT, you tell the director to NAT the calls from the ident 
client on the real-servers. I don't remember exactly how to do it.
You could NAT everything from the real-servers, which you seem to
have done here (so I don't know why it isn't working)

or you could NAT all calls to -d 0.0.0.0:authd

If you are root on the client, ident on the real-server 
will return a fail (I think).
