Hi again, i am a bit curious about these two directives. Can somebody explain in a few words how are these implemented? Using linux network namespaces? Or simply put somehow services using these 2 directives are forbidden to bind to l3, l4 sockets and only allowed to communicate via unix domain sockets? Its an interesting feature, i thought i should give it a try. ___ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
