NAME

       in.nanoweb - inetd mode wrapper script for Nanoweb

DESCRIPTION

       in.nanoweb  is  run  from  the  internet  superserver  daemon  inetd(8)
       whenever a request on port 80 is detected. It then starts up a copy  of
       the  Nanoweb  HyperText Transfer Protocol server to handle the incoming
       request.

       inetd passes the opened socket connection  as  stdin  to  this  wrapper
       script.

NOTES

       Usually  there  should  already  be a line in inetd.conf(5) which tells
       inetd to run this wrapper, so you may just have to uncomment it.

       Additionally  in.nanoweb  requires  getpeername(1)  from  the  tcputils
       package  to  determine  the IP and TCP port address from the requesting
       host, as  Nanoweb  currently  cannot  determine  this  itself  (due  to
       limitations of the sockets extension in the php(1) scripting language).

FILES

       /etc/inetd.conf
              This file contains the  line  which  can  enable  activation  of
              in.nanoweb on incoming requests.
