It is the port server used by the Ivy daemon .B ivyd and its clients to know which port they should use to communicate. .B in.ivyd is either launched by .B inetd, or at boot time (or manually). The latter option is used in the Linux distributions of the Ivy daemon. .SH LAUNCHING FROM INETD If you want .B in.ivyd to be launched by .B inetd, you should add the appropriate lines to .I /etc/services and .I /etc/inetd.conf. .LP In .I /etc/services, you should add the following line: .IP in.ivyd 3006/udp # ivyd port server .LP and in .I /etc/inetd.conf, the following line: .IP in.ivyd dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.ivyd in.ivyd .SH LAUNCHING MANUALLY OR AT BOOT TIME To launch .B in.ivyd manually or at boot time, you must launch it with the flag .I \-boot. Launch at boot time is the default option in the Linux packages, which come with the appropriate command file to add to the boot sequence. .SH SEE ALSO .PP ivyd(1), ivyecho(1), Ivy(1)
