Most the time, with bands that have that policy (I am, admittedly talking like club and theater shows, not arena rock shows), advance notice to the ticketing company + a copy of the original purchasers drivers license is considered sufficient.
It's a nice check and balance, and covers the "sell for cost to a friend/acquaintance" route, but is a determent to the professional scalper, since he is required to surrender his identity, essentially, to a 3rd party.
