SOCKD.FR(5) File Formats Manual SOCKD.FR(5)NAME
sockd.fr - Frozen route file for multi-homed SOCKS proxy server
SYNOPSIS
/etc/sockd.fr
DESCRIPTION
The frozen route file is produced by make_sockdfr and is essentially the memory image of the parsed route file. Using the frozen route file
can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS server program since it no longer has to parse the file contents.
When the SOCKS server starts, it always looks for the frozen route file /etc/sockd.fr first. If that file is not found, it then tries to
use the plain-text route file /etc/sockd.route. If you use frozen route file, you must remember to run make_sockdfr every time after you
modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS server will continue to use the frozen version of a previous route file.
To find out the contents of a frozen route file, use dump_sockdfr.

make_sockdfr - Generates frozen route file for SOCKS server
SYNOPSIS
make_sockdfr [infile [outfile] ]
DESCRIPTION
make_sockdfr reads in a plain-text route file for the SOCKS server and produces a frozen route file as the output.
Both arguments are optional. The default for infile is /etc/sockd.route; the default for outfile is /etc/sockd.fr. You may specify infile
while omitting outfile, but you cannot specify outfile without also speficying infile.
The contents of the frozen route file is essentially the memory image of the parsed input file. Using the frozen route file can reduce the
start-up delay of the SOCKS server program since it no longer has to parse the file contents.
When the SOCKS server starts, it always looks for the frozen route file /etc/sockd.fr first. If that file is not found, it then tries to
use the plain-text route file /etc/sockd.route. If you use frozen route file, you must remember to run make_sockdfr every time after you
modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS server will continue to use the frozen version of a previous route file.
To find out the contents of a frozen route file, use dump_sockdfr.

I'm writing a command shell, and I want to be able to detect when the user presses an arrow key (otherwise it just prints [[A, [[B, etc.). I know it's relatively easy (although somewhat more time-consuming) to detect keystrokes in noncanonical mode, but I've noticed that the bash shell detects... (4 Replies)
I'm learning off Linux (Ubuntu) right now. I want to move up to Unix, but I don't want to rush like I did when it came to Windows --> to Linux. What is the best Unix OS that fits in pretty well with Ubuntu.
In other words is there kind of an equal Linux with Unix?
Also what do I need to... (10 Replies)
I noticed my hostname is <my-full-name>s-macbook.local. I'm not sure exactly what information leaves the local network, and whether the hostname is included, but if it is, this would mean people on the Internet can look at my hostname and see who I am. Before anyone says that's not possible,... (4 Replies)
