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.

OPTIONS

       -r     (Default.)  Attempt to obtain TCPREMOTEINFO from the remote host.

       -R     Do not attempt to obtain TCPREMOTEINFO from the remote host.

       -ttimeout
              Give up on the TCPREMOTEINFO connection attempt after timeout seconds.  Default: 30.
