Your program receives environment variables showing + the local and remote host names, IP addresses, and port numbers. + . + tcpserver offers a concurrency limit to protect you from running out of + processes and memory. When you are handling 40 (by default) simultaneous + connections, tcpserver smoothly defers acceptance of new connections. + . + tcpserver also provides TCP access control features, similar to + tcp-wrappers/tcpd's hosts.allow but much faster. Its access control rules + are compiled into a hashed format with cdb, so it can easily deal with + thousands of different hosts. . - Real-time Blocking List support is also included in tcpserver, so - you can run qmail-smtpd with it and avoid a lot of SPAM. + This package includes a recordio tool that monitors all the input and output + of a server. . - tcpclient and tcpserver conform to UCSPI, the UNIX Client-Server - Program Interface, using the TCP protocol. + tcpclient makes a TCP connection and runs a program of your choice. It sets + up the same environment variables as tcpserver. . - Dan Bernstein (ucspi-tcp's author) only gives permission for his code - to be distributed in source form, or binary by approval. This package - has been put together to allow people to easily build a binary - package for themselves, from source. + This package includes several sample clients built on top of tcpclient: + who@, date@, finger@, http@, tcpcat, and mconnect. . - If there is a package called ucspi-tcp available, then Dan has approved the - binary version of the package for distribution, so you might as well install - that and save yourself some effort. + tcpserver and tcpclient conform to UCSPI, the UNIX Client-Server Program + Interface, using the TCP protocol. UCSPI tools are + available for several different networks. |
