	     micro_inetd - simple network service spawner

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 program.  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.

See the manual entry for more details.

To build: If you're on a SysV-like machine (which includes old Linux systems
but not new Linux systems), edit the Makefile and uncomment the SYSV_LIBS
line.  Otherwise, just do a make.
