- DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
- The sseerrvviicceess file contains information regarding the known services
- available in the DARPA Internet. For each service a single line should
- be present with the following information:
-
- official service name
- port number
- protocol name
- aliases
-
- Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters. The
- port number and protocol name are considered a single _i_t_e_m; a ``/'' is
- used to separate the port and protocol (e.g. ``512/tcp''). A ``#'' indi-
- cates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of
- the line are not interpreted by the routines which search the file.
-
- Service names may contain any printable character other than a field de-
- limiter, newline, or comment character.
