What you need to do is get the ident daemon that works with IP
masquarding, and run it on your firewall, as well as the machines inside
the firewall. As I understand it, what is happening is that when the irc
server asks your machine who is trying to connect, the standard identd
looks, see's the user isn't local, and returns a default ID. So as far as
the irc server is concerned, all the users behind the firewall are the
same user.
I don't remember what the package is called, but you can serch on
freshmeat.net for ident and masquarade.
