NAME

       in.daytimed - UDP or TCP daytime protocol service daemon

SYNOPSIS

       in.daytimed

       FMRI
       svc:/internet/daytime:default

DESCRIPTION

       FMRI  stands  for  Fault  Management  Resource  Identifier.  It is used to identify resources managed by the Fault Manager. See fmd(1M) and
       smf(5).

       The in.daytimed service provides the server-side of the daytime protocol. This protocol is used for debugging and bandwidth measurement and
       is available on both TCP and UDP transports, through port 13.

       The  in.daytimed  service  is  an inetd(1M) smf(5) delegated service. The in.daytimed detects which transport is requested by examining the
       socket it is passed by the inetd daemon.

       TCP-based service

	   Once a connection is established, the in.daytimed generates the current date and time in ctime(3C) format as 7-bit ASCII and  sends	it
	   through the connection. The server then closes the connection. Any data received from the client side of the connection is discarded.

       UDP-based service

	   The	in.daytimed  listens  for  UDP datagrams. When a datagram is received, the server generates the current date and time in ctime(3C)
	   format as 7-bit ASCII and inserts it in a UDP datagram sent in response to the client's request. Any received data is ignored.

NAME

       rpc.sprayd, sprayd - spray server

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/netsvc/spray/rpc.sprayd

DESCRIPTION

       rpc.sprayd is a server that records the packets sent by spray(1M). The rpc.sprayd daemon may be started by inetd(1M) or listen(1M).

       The  service provided by rpc.sprayd is not useful as a networking benchmark as it uses unreliable connectionless transports, (udp for exam-
       ple). It can report a large number of packets dropped when the drops were caused by the program sending packets faster  than  they  can  be
       buffered locally (before the packets get to the network medium).

NOTES

       The rpc.sprayd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

       svc:/network/rpc/spray:default

       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). Responsibil-
       ity for initiating and restarting this service is delegated to inetd(1M). Use inetadm(1M) to make configuration changes and to view config-
       uration information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
