NAME

       in.nanoweb - inetd mode wrapper script for Nanoweb

DESCRIPTION

       in.nanoweb is run from the internet superserver daemon inetd(8) whenever a request on port
       80 is detected. It then starts up a copy of the Nanoweb HyperText Transfer Protocol server
       to handle the incoming request.

       inetd passes the opened socket connection as stdin to this wrapper script.

NOTES

       Usually  there  should  already  be  a line in inetd.conf(5) which tells inetd to run this
       wrapper, so you may just have to uncomment it.

       Additionally in.nanoweb requires getpeername(1) from the tcputils package to determine the
       IP  and  TCP  port address from the requesting host, as Nanoweb currently cannot determine
       this itself (due  to  limitations  of  the  sockets  extension  in  the  php(1)  scripting
       language).

FILES

       /etc/inetd.conf
              This  file  contains the line which can enable activation of in.nanoweb on incoming
              requests.
