NAME
pawserv - CERNLIB program for serving PAW histograms remotely
DESCRIPTION
pawserv is the server for distributed PAW. It listens for connections
on port 345. pawserv is not in general run from the command line, but
only via inetd(8). From the PAW client side, a remote PAW session is
invoked with the RLOGIN hostname command. Distributed PAW is
documented fully in chapter 8 of the PAW user's guide, available in
PostScript format at this URL:
http://wwwinfo.cern.ch/asdoc/psdir/paw.ps.gz
Please note that pawserv receives unencrypted passwords over the
network. It should therefore be used only within a trusted LAN.
