I haven't read the Inetd enhancements proposal but, for what is worth, I have already made significant modifications to NetBSD' inetd(8). There are published in: https://github.com/tlaronde/BeSiDe (it's current NetBSD with incorporation of several modifications made by me, including inetd(8)---and by side effect, mountd(8) that was sharing code with inetd(8).) I dare say that it will be more easy to add features to this version instead of working with the current one. But since I'm not directly concerned by the GSoC affair (neither by NetBSD evolutions---I'm not a NetBSD developer), this is just to give you a supplementary pointer to existing alternative code. -- Thierry Laronde <tlaronde +AT+ kergis +dot+ com> http://www.kergis.com/ http://kertex.kergis.com/ Key fingerprint = 0FF7 E906 FBAF FE95 FD89 250D 52B1 AE95 6006 F40C
