finetd is an Internet superserver. It can listen
for connections on any number of TCP/UDP ports or
Unix path names, as defined by a configuration
file. When a connection is made to one of these
ports, finetd launches an application to handle
the request. finetd supports IPv4, IPv6, and UNIX
domain sockets. Stream, datagram (dgram), and
seqpacket socket types are supported.
