Administering the connection server

Administering the connection server

The connection server (see cs(1Mbnu)) is a standing process or daemon that runs on all client machines. It is used to establish connections for all network services that communicate over Transport Level Interface (TLI) connection-oriented and dialup connections. The connection server is started automatically (from /etc/dinit.d/S80cs) during initialization when the system goes to multi-user state. It receives requests for network services from client machine applications, establishes connections to the server-machine ports associated with the requested services, and passes the connections back to the application. Before passing a connection to an application, the connection server may invoke an authentication scheme.
