in.nanoweb(8)
NAME
in.nanoweb - inetd mode wrapper script for Nanoweb
DESCRIPTION
in.nanoweb is run from the internet superserver daemon inetd(8) whenever a request on port 80 is detected. It then starts up a copy of the
Nanoweb HyperText Transfer Protocol server to handle the incoming
request.
inetd passes the opened socket connection as stdin to this wrapper
script.
NOTES
Usually there should already be a line in inetd.conf(5) which tells inetd to run this wrapper, so you may just have to uncomment it.
Additionally in.nanoweb requires getpeername(1) from the tcputils package to determine the IP and TCP port address from the requesting host,
as Nanoweb currently cannot determine this itself (due to limitations
of the sockets extension in the php(1) scripting language).
