SYNOPSIS

kxd [-t ] [-i ] [-p port ]

DESCRIPTION

This is the daemon for kx

Options supported by kxd

-t

TCP. Normally kxd will only listen for X connections on a UNIX socket, but some machines (for example, Cray) have X libraries that are not able to use UNIX sockets and thus you need to use TCP to talk to the pseudo-xserver created by kxd This option decreases the security significantly and should only be used when it is necessary and you have considered the consequences of doing so.

-i

Interactive. Do not expect to be started by inetd but allocate and listen to the socket yourself. Handy for testing and debugging.

-p

Port. Listen on the port port Only usable with -i

EXAMPLES

Put the following in /etc/inetd.conf

kx      stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/athena/libexec/kxd kxd
