NAME
       micro_inetd - simple network service spawner

SYNOPSIS
       micro_inetd port program [args ...]

DESCRIPTION
       Like  inetd,  this program listens on the net for requests and spawns a
       server to handle them.  However, it only handles one port and one  pro‐
       gram.   The  intended  use is when you have a server that expects to be
       run by inetd, but you only want to run it temporarily and don't want to
       bother  with  putting  it  into	/etc/services  and /etc/inetd.conf and
       restarting inetd.  Instead, just start up micro_inetd, and when	you're
       done just ^C it.

       Other limitations:

       *    Full  inetd	 lets  you  specify  the socket type as one of stream,
	    dgram,  raw,  rdm,	or  seqpacket;	 micro_inetd  only  implements
	    stream.

       *    Full  inetd	 lets  you  specify  wait  or nowait; micro_inetd only
	    implements nowait.

       *    Full inetd lets you specify	 a  user-id  to	 run  the  server  as;
	    micro_inetd doesn't try to switch user-ids.
