NAME

       sockd.fc - Frozen configuration file for SOCKS server

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/sockd.fc

DESCRIPTION

       The  frozen  configuration  file  is  produced by make_sockdfc and is essentially the memory image of the
       parsed configuration 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.
