RPC.SPRAYD(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures RPC.SPRAYD(8)
NAME
rpc.sprayd, sprayd - spray server
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/netsvc/spray/rpc.spraydDESCRIPTION
rpc.sprayd is a server that records the packets sent by
spray(8).
The
rpc.sprayd daemon may be started by
inetd(8) or
listen(8).
The service provided by
rpc.sprayd is not useful as a networking
benchmark as it uses unreliable connectionless transports, (udp for
example). It can report a large number of packets dropped when the
drops were caused by the program sending packets faster than they can
be buffered locally (before the packets get to the network medium).
