.TH DUMP_SOCKDFC 8 "May 6, 1996"
.SH NAME
dump_sockdfc \- Display contents of frozen configuratyion file for SOCKS server
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBdump_sockdfc [\fIinfile\fR]\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
dump_sockdfc reads in a frozen configuration file for the
SOCKS server and produces
a listing of its contents on the standard output.
The argument is optional; if omitted, \fB/etc/sockd.fc\fP is assumed.
The frozen configuration file is produced by \fImake_sockdfc\fR and
is essentially the
memory image of the parsed configuration file. Using the frozen configuration
file can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS server program since
it no longer has to parse the file contents.
When the SOCKS server starts, it always looks for the frozen
configuration file \fB/etc/sockd.fc\fP first. If that file
is not found, it then tries to use the plain-text configuration file
\fB/etc/sockd.conf\fP. If you use frozen configuration,
you must remember to run \fImake_sockdfc\fR every time after you
modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS server will continue to use
the frozen file of a previous configuration.
