- /*
- * Front end to the ULTRIX miscd service. The front end logs the remote host
- * name and then invokes the real miscd daemon. Install as "/usr/etc/miscd",
- * after moving the real miscd daemon to the "/usr/etc/..." directory.
- * Connections and diagnostics are logged through syslog(3).
- *
- * The Ultrix miscd program implements (among others) the systat service, which
- * pipes the output from who(1) to stdout. This information is potentially
- * useful to systems crackers.
- *
- * Compile with -DHOSTS_ACCESS in order to enable access control. See the
- * hosts_access(5) manual page for details.
- *
- * Compile with -DPARANOID if service should be refused to hosts that pretend
- * to have someone elses host name. This gives some protection against rsh
- * and rlogin attacks that involve compromised domain name servers.
- *
- * Compile with -DDAEMON_UMASK=nnn if daemons should run with a non-default
- * umask value (the system default is 000, resulting in world-writable
- * files).
