NAME

       ServerLoop::serverLoop - A basic implementation of a server loop.

SYNOPSIS

       Void  serverLoop(  Protocol  proto,  Int  port, Int maxcon, Void(NetHandle) commfun, Void(NetHandle, Int)
       forkfun=forkfunDefault )

ARGUMENTS

       proto The protocol ( Net.Protocol (3kaya) ) to listen on

       port The port to listen on

       maxcon The maximum number of simultaneous connections to accept.

       commfun The function that processes each new connection. The connection will be closed automatically when
       this function exits, so it need not.

       forkfun This function is run by the old process after the new process is forked, and is given the process
       ID of the new process. This argument may be omitted, in which case a default function that  does  nothing
       will be used.

DESCRIPTION

       This function provides a basic implementation of a forking server loop, similar in architecture to sshd.
