NAME
     kdumpd -- Mac OS X remote kernel core dump server

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/libexec/kdumpd [directory]

DESCRIPTION
     Kdumpd is a server which receives kernel states in the form of a core dump from a remote Mac OS X machine.  The kdumpd server operates on UDP
     port 1069, although this may be configurable in the future.  The server should be started by inetd(8).

     The server should have the user ID with the lowest possible privilege, usually the user "nobody".	The directory specified as a server pro-
     gram argument in /etc/inetd.conf directs the server to store kernel cores in that directory and nowhere else.  The server returns an EEXIST
     error to the remote kernel if it receives a request for an existing file - i.e.  only new files can be created. The server also disallows
     path specifications in the incoming file name.

HISTORY
     The kdumpd command is based on Berkeley tftpd(8) by way of FreeBSD, with several modifications.
