The `s6-tcpserver` program

+ +

+s6-tcpserver is an +UCSPI tool for +TCP connections, i.e. a super-server. It accepts connections from +clients, and forks a program to handle each connection. +

+ +

Interface

+ +

+     s6-tcpserver [ -q | -Q | -v ] [ -4 | -6 ] [ -1 ] [ -c maxconn ] [ -C localmaxconn ] [ -b backlog ] [ -G gidlist ] [ -g gid ] [ -u uid ] [ -U ] ip port prog...
+

+ +

s6-tcpserver executes into +s6-tcpserver4 or +s6-tcpserver6 depending on whether +ip is an IPv4 or IPv6 address. It modifies some of its +option syntax to match s6-tcpserver4 and s6-tcpserver6's.
s6-tcpserver4 or s6-tcpserver6 handles the connection itself.

+ +

Options

+ +

-q : be quiet. This is converted into -v 0 +for s6-tcpserver4 or s6-tcpserver6.
-Q : be normally quiet. This is converted into -v 1 +for s6-tcpserver4 or s6-tcpserver6. This is the default.
-v : be verbose. This is converted into -v 2 +for s6-tcpserver4 or s6-tcpserver6.
-4 : IPv4 only. Interpret ip as IPv4; if it is +invalid, exit 100.
-6 : IPv6 only. Interpret ip as IPv6; if it is +invalid, exit 100. If neither the -4 nor the -6 option is +given, s6-tcpserver will parse ip to determine its family.
Every other option is passed verbatim to s6-tcpserver4 or s6-tcpserver6.

+ +

Notes

+ +

s6-tcpserver executes either into s6-tcpserver4, which only serves +IPv4, or into IPv6, which only serves IPv6. It will not bind to every +available IP address of the machine whether they are v4 or v6; on the +other hand, it can bind to every available IPv4 address (if ip +is 0.0.0.0) or to every available IPv6 address (if ip +is ::). Two instances of s6-tcpserver can cover every +available address.
