ipsvd is a set of internet protocol service daemons for Unix. It currently
|
|
includes a TCP/IP service daemon, an SSLv3 TCP/IP service daemon (Linux and
|
|
MacOSX), and an UDP/IP service daemon.
|
|
|
|
An internet protocol service (ipsv) daemon waits for incoming connections on a
|
|
local socket; for new connections, it conditionally runs an arbitrary program
|
|
with standard input reading from the socket, and standard output writing to the
|
|
socket (if connected), to handle 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; based on the client's IP address or hostname, they
|
|
can run different programs, set a different environment, deny a connection, or
|
|
set a per host concurrency limit.
|
|
|
|
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.
