cs

 cs - start connection server daemon

Synopsis

lib/cs

Description

The cs command creates a file named cs in the /net directory then spawns a daemon process also named cs. Command cs then terminates while daemon cs continues execution, monitoring read and write requests to the /net/cs file. Once the daemon process is running, application programs can write host names to /net/cs and read that same file to obtain the corresponding internet address. The requests can also symbolically name a service (e.g. $MAILSERVER) that the daemon resolves by reference to the /services/cs/db file.

The daemon process persists until explicitly terminated. The interface file, /net/cs, persists until unmounted from /net.

Options

The cs command has no options or arguments.
