They conform to the UNIX Client-Server +Program Interface, UCSPI. + +ipcserver listens for connections on a local-domain stream socket, and +runs a program for each connection it accepts. The program environment +includes variables that hold the local and remote socket addresses, and +the effective user and group IDs of the process that called connect. +ipcserver offers a concurrency limit on acceptance of new connections, +and selective handling of connections based on client identity. + +ipcclient requests a connection to a local-domain socket, and runs a +program. The program environment includes a variable that holds the +local socket address. + +ipcperl is an example of an ipchandle server. It invokes a perl +subroutine for each request. + +WWW: http://www.superscript.com/ucspi-ipc/intro.html |
