In options:
[+]Connect
|-Options
|-Perform
|-Local Info
|-Identd <--- click here

Make sure Enable Identd Server is checked and that the port is set to 113. If you are using the Windows XP firewall go here.

DALnet also has an extensive Identd FAQ which may prove to be quite useful.

The URL should have been included in the AutoKill message actually ...

I already tried the best I can for a while now, following the instructions about the identd, etc.. I am losing hope... just for a little info, I am using a cable modem by cox... it is probably my connection, i don't know... I can get through Undernet but that's not where I want to be, I am a Dalnet user unfortunately... I just don't know what to do now. I am going to die without mirc... LOL confused

On occasion, identd problems are also due to the DALnet servers themselves. Sometimes, when servers are overloaded with clients, the server has problem performing the identd lookups for all the people who are trying to connect.

I'm not quite sure about the current situation, but a few weeks ago, there was also speculation that the new version of ircd may have also been related to the failed identd lookups.

Unfortunately, sometimes there's nothing much to do but to keep trying different IRC servers - sometimes, the smaller ones may work better than the bigger ones.

Oh yea, and there's this post on the issue as well.
