SYNOPSIS
/usr/libexec/rpc.sprayd |
DESCRIPTION
rpc.sprayd is a server which records packets sent by the
spray(8) command and sends a traffic report to the originator of the
packets. The rpc.sprayd daemon is normally invoked by
inetd(8).
rpc.sprayd uses an RPC protocol defined in
/usr/include/rpcsvc/spray.x.
SEE ALSO
SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
As rpc.sprayd responds to packets
generated by spray(8), remote users can cause a denial of network service
against the local host by saturating requests to
rpc.sprayd.
