MAKE_SOCKDFC(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   MAKE_SOCKDFC(8)

NAME

       make_sockdfc -  Generates frozen configuratyion file for SOCKS server

SYNOPSIS

       make_sockdfc [infile [outfile] ]

DESCRIPTION

       make_sockdfc reads in a plain-text configuration file for the SOCKS server and produces a frozen configuration file as the output.

       Both  arguments	are  optional. The default for infile is /etc/sockd.conf; the default for outfile is /etc/sockd.fc. You may specify infile
       while omitting outfile, but you cannot specify outfile without also speficying infile.

       The contents of the frozen configuration file is essentially the memory image of the parsed input file. Using the frozen configuration 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 configuration file /etc/sockd.fc first. If that file is not found, it then
       tries to use the plain-text configuration file /etc/sockd.conf. If you use frozen configuration, you  must  remember  to  run  make_sockdfc
       every time after you modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS server will continue to use the frozen file of a previous configuration.

       To find out the contents of a frozen configuration file, use dump_sockdfc.

FILES

       /etc/sockd.fc, /etc/sockd.conf
