NAME

       dump_sockdfr -  Display contents of frozen route file for SOCKS server

SYNOPSIS

       dump_sockdfr [infile]

DESCRIPTION

       dump_sockdfr  reads in a frozen route file for the SOCKS server and produces a listing of its contents on
       the standard output.

       The argument is optional; if omitted, /etc/sockd.fr is assumed.

       The frozen route file is produced by make_sockdfr and is essentially the memory image of the parsed route
       file.  Using  the frozen route 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 route file /etc/sockd.fr first. If that file
       is  not  found,  it then tries to use the plain-text route file /etc/sockd.route. If you use frozen route
       file, you must remember to run make_sockdfr every time after you modify the plain-text file or the  SOCKS
       server will continue to use the frozen version of a previous route file.

FILES

       /etc/sockd.fr, /etc/sockd.route
