Hello,

I know the merits and the meaning of the flags of the program
tcpserver.

In some installations
there the smtp port - tcp/ip connections are controlled by the
following
shell script:
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run

tcpserver runs like this : tcpserver  flag-opts flag-port flag-progs

My question:

What is the exact meaning and result of the progs-flag :
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd domain.com \
    /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true 2>&1

in    /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R -l 0 \
    -x /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" \
    -u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp \
    /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd domain.com \
    /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true 2>&1

in the
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run script.

Every answer is welcome.

Regs,

Oliver Etzel
