An example inetd-like socket-activated service. #systemd #inetd #systemd.socket

README

This is an example of a socket-activated per-connection service (which is usually referred to as inetd-like service). A thorough explanation can be found at http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/inetd.html.

Define a socket unit

The key point here is to specify Accept=yes, which will make the socket accept connections (behaving like inetd) and pass only the resulting connection socket to the service handler.

Typing vagrant from the command line will display a list of all available commands.

Be sure that you are in the same directory as the Vagrantfile when running these commands!

Creating a VM

  • vagrant init -- Initialize Vagrant with a Vagrantfile and ./.vagrant directory, using no specified base image. Before you can do vagrant up, you'll need to specify a base image in the Vagrantfile.
  • vagrant init <boxpath> -- Initialize Vagrant with a specific box. To find a box, go to the public Vagrant box catalog. When you find one you like, just replace it's name with boxpath. For example, vagrant init ubuntu/trusty64.

Starting a VM

  • vagrant up -- starts vagrant environment (also provisions only on the FIRST vagrant up)
