I also found the ident problem with IRC in Leopard (tells you how long it's been since I used IRC...) and after trying to figure out how to get the service started I stumbled across this. It's simple works great.
Getting IdentD To Work When It Goes Into Bomb Mode - Version: 2.5.1, 2/11/2009 01:46AM PST

I had IdentD bombing its server Start service over and over.
Solution that worked for me in 10.4.11 on an Intel MacBook:
In System Preferences I Ctrl-clicked on it's icon and selected 'Remove "IdentD" Preference Pane'. That tossed it in the Trash the official way. I then closed System Preferences and emptied the Trash.
I then specifically opened Port 113, as instructed in the installer Read Me, in my Mac OS X firewall and in my router, both TCP and UDP. In the case of my router I used port forwarding to my Mac's IP within my LAN.
At that point I reinstalled IdentD. After the installation was complete I opened System Preferences and opened the IdentD pane. I then hit the Activate button and all was well.

I got it to work once. It was great. Then I turned on internet sharing and it didn't work. Now I've tried everything and it hasn't worked since. Oh well, it was a nice idea. I wish I could get any ident auth server to work on OS X.
