NAME
tcp-env - set up TCP-related environment variables
SYNOPSIS
tcp-env
[
-rR
]
[
-ttimeout
]
program
[
arg ...
]
DESCRIPTION
The input for
tcp-env
must be a TCP connection.
tcp-env
finds out information about that connection,
puts the information into several environment variables
as described in
tcp-environ(5),
and runs
program
with the given arguments.
Usually
tcp-env
is run from
inetd.
It might instead be run from another server
that already sets up the right environment variables;
if
PROTO
is set to
TCP
when
tcp-env
is invoked,
tcp-env
assumes that all the other variables are set up properly,
and it does not check whether the input is a TCP connection.
