-<h1> The <tt>s6-ipcserver-socketbinder</tt> program </h1>
-
-<p>
-<tt>s6-ipcserver-socketbinder</tt> binds a Unix domain
-socket, then executes a program.
-</p>
-
-<h2> Interface </h2>
-
-<pre>
- s6-ipcserver-socketbinder [ -d | -D ] [ -b <em>backlog</em> ] <em>path</em> <em>prog...</em>
-</pre>
-
-<ul>
- <li> s6-ipcserver-socketbinder creates a Unix domain socket of type SOCK_STREAM
-and binds it to <em>path</em>. It prepares the socket to accept
-connections by calling
-<a href="http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/listen.html">listen()</a>. </li>
- <li> It then execs into <em>prog...</em> with the open socket
-as its standard input. </li>
-</ul>
-
-<h2> Options </h2>
-
-<ul>
- <li> <tt>-d</tt>&nbsp;: allow instant rebinding to the same path
-even if it has been used not long ago - this is the SO_REUSEADDR flag to
-<a href="http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/setsockopt.html">setsockopt()</a>
-and is generally used with server programs. This is the default. Note that
-<em>path</em> will be deleted if it already exists at program start time. </li>
- <li> <tt>-D</tt>&nbsp;: disallow instant rebinding to the same path. </li>
- <li> <tt>-b&nbsp;<em>backlog</em></tt>&nbsp;: set a maximum of
-<em>backlog</em> backlog connections on the socket. Extra
-connection attempts will rejected by the kernel. </li>
-</ul>
-
-<h2> Notes </h2>
-
-<ul>
- <li> s6-ipcserver-socketbinder is part of a set of basic blocks used to
-build a flexible Unix super-server. It normally should be given a
-command line crafted to make it execute into
-<a href="s6-ipcserverd.html">s6-ipcserverd</a> to accept connections
-from clients, or into a program such as
-<a href="http://skarnet.org/software/s6/s6-applyuidgid.html">s6-applyuidgid</a>
-to drop privileges before doing so. </li>
- <li> The <a href="s6-ipcserver.html">s6-ipcserver</a> program does
-exactly this. It implements
-a full Unix super-server by building a command line starting with
-s6-ipcserver-socketbinder and ending with s6-ipcserverd followed by the
-application program, and executing into it. </li>
-</ul>
