Description-en: UNIX-domain socket client-server command-line tools
unixclient and unixserver are command-line tools for building UNIX
domain client-server applications. unixclient connects to a UNIX domain
socket and runs a program of your choice. unixserver creates a UNIX
domain socket, waits for incoming connections and, for each connection,
runs a program of your choice.
.
unixclient and unixserver conform to UCSPI, the UNIX Client-Server
Program Interface, using UNIX domain sockets. UCSPI tools are available
for several different networks.
.
See http://cr.yp.to/proto/ucspi.txt for more information on UCSPI. See
