Configuration and configuration files

When the POSIX subsystem is started, all steps required for configuring connection to the network are carried out automatically. The only thing visible to the user is the starting of the inetd daemon program by the init process.

This chapter describes:

• the inetd daemon program (Internet superserver),

• the configuration files for hosts, networks, protocols and services,

• the dependencies of the SOCKETS(POSIX) and XTI(POSIX) applications on the BS2000 transport system BCAM.
