Description-en: Process server with telnet console and log access
procServ is a wrapper that starts an arbitrary command as a child process in
the background, connecting its standard input and output to a TCP port for
telnet access. It supports logging, child restart (manual or automatic on
exit), and more.
.
procServ does not have the rich feature set of the screen utility,
but is intended to provide running a command in a system service style,
in a small, robust way.
Handling multiple users, authorization, authentication, central logging
is done best on a higher level, using a package like conserver.
.
For security reasons, procServ only accepts connections from localhost.
