| 38 | .Sh NAME | |
| 39 | .Nm kdumpd | |
| 40 | .Nd Mac OS X remote kernel core dump server | |
| 41 | .Sh SYNOPSIS | |
| 42 | .Nm /usr/libexec/kdumpd | |
| 43 | .Op Ar directory | |
| 44 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
| 45 | .Nm Kdumpd | |
| 46 | is a server which receives | |
| 47 | kernel states in the form of | |
| 48 | a core dump from a remote | |
| 49 | Mac OS X machine. | |
| 50 | The | |
| 51 | .Tn kdumpd | |
| 52 | server operates | |
| 53 | on UDP port 1069, although this | |
| 54 | may be configurable in the future. | |
| 55 | The server should be started by | |
| 56 | .Xr inetd 8 . | |
| 57 | .Pp | |
| 58 | The server should have the user ID | |
| 59 | with the lowest possible privilege, | |
| 60 | usually the user "nobody". | |
| 61 | The directory specified as a server | |
| 62 | program argument in | |
| 63 | .Pa /etc/inetd.conf | |
| 64 | directs the server to store kernel cores | |
| 65 | in that directory and nowhere else. | |
| 66 | The server returns an EEXIST error | |
| 67 | to the remote kernel if it receives a | |
| 68 | request for an existing file - i.e. | |
| 69 | only new files can be created. The server | |
| 70 | also disallows path specifications in the | |
| 71 | incoming file name. | |
| 72 | .Sh HISTORY | |
| 73 | The | |
| 74 | .Nm | |
| 75 | command is based on Berkeley | |
| 76 | .Xr tftpd 8 | |
| 77 | by way of FreeBSD, with several modifications. | |
