NAME

       wrapsrv - DNS SRV record command line wrapper

SYNOPSIS

       wrapsrv [SRVNAME] [COMMAND] [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       wrapsrv  adds  support for connecting to a network service based on DNS SRV record lookups
       to commands that do not support the  DNS  SRV  record.  wrapsrv  implements  the  weighted
       priority  client  connection  algorithm  in  RFC  2782. The specified command line will be
       invoked one or more times with %h and %p sequences in the command line substituted for the
       hostname  and port elements of the selected SRV record. The command line invoked must exit
       and return 0 after a successful connection or exit and return non-zero if  the  connection
       fails.  wrapsrv will itself exit with the return code of the last command line invocation,
       or it may exit with a non-zero return code if the DNS SRV  record  lookup  fails  for  any
       reason.
