ipsvd is a set of internet protocol service daemons.
|
|
It currently includes a TCP/IP service daemon, and a UDP/IP service daemon.
|
|
|
|
An internet protocol service (ipsv) daemon waits for incoming connections
|
|
on a local socket. On incoming connections, the ipsv daemon conditionally
|
|
runs an arbitrary program with standard input reading from the socket, and
|
|
standard output writing to the socket, that handles the connection.
|
|
Standard error is used for logging.
|
|
|
|
ipsv daemons can be told to read and follow pre-defined instructions on
|
|
how to handle incoming connections. It's possible to run different
|
|
programs, or to set a different environment, or to deny a connection, or
|
|
to set a per host concurrency limit, depending on the client's address or
|
|
hostname.
|
|
|
|
Normally the ipsv daemons are run by a supervisor process, such as runsv
|
|
from the runit package, or supervise from the daemontools package.
|
|
|
|
ipsvd can be used to run services normally run by inetd, xinetd, or tcpserver.
