DebianNet(3pm)             Linux Programmer's Manual            DebianNet(3pm)

NAME
       DebianNet.pm   -   create,   remove,   enable   or   disable  entry  in
       /etc/inetd.conf

SYNOPSIS
       require DebianNet;

       DebianNet::add_service($newentry, $group);

       DebianNet::remove_service($entry);

       DebianNet::enable_service($service, $pattern);

       DebianNet::disable_service($service, $pattern);

DESCRIPTION
       You can use the functions in DebianNet.pm to to add, remove, enable  or
       disable  entries in the /etc/inetd.conf file. After the /etc/inetd.conf
       file has been changed, a SIGHUP  signal  will  be  sent  to  the  inetd
       process  to make sure that inetd will use the new /etc/inetd.conf file.
       The functions can also be used to add entries that are commented out by
       default. They will be treated like normal entries. That also means that
       if you already have an entry that is commented out  you  can't  add  an
       entry for the same service without removing the old one first.

       The  DebianNet functions treat entries that are commented out by a sin-
       gle '#' character as entries that have been commented out by a user. It
       won't change such entries.

        For  shell  scripts  you  can  also  use the update-inetd command. See
       update-inetd(8) for further information.

VARIABLES
       $DebianNet::inetdcf = "FILENAME";
              Use FILENAME instead of /etc/inetd.conf (e.g. for  testing  pur-
              poses).

       $DebianNet::sep = "#<off># ";
              "#<off># "  will be used as the default comment characters.  You
              can use this option to  specify  different  comment  characters.
              This  is  only  necessary if you have to deal with two (or more)
              services of the same name.

       $DebianNet::multi = "true";
              If you want to disable/remove more than one entry at a time  you
              should use this option. If you try to remove more than one entry
              at a time without using this option  the  program  will  show  a
              warning and asks the user if he want to continue.

       $DebianNet::verbose = "true";
              Explain what is being done.

FUNCTIONS
       DebianNet::add_service($newentry, $group);
              Add  $newentry  to the group $group of the /etc/inetd.conf file.
              If the entry already exist it will  be  enabled  (it  will  also
              detect  entries with different program options). Using $group is
              optional (the default group is the group OTHER).  If  the  group
              does not exist the entry will be placed at the end of the file.

       DebianNet::remove_service($entry);
              Remove  $entry  from  /etc/inetd.conf  .  You  can use a regular
              expression to remove the entry.

       DebianNet::enable_service($service, $pattern);
              Enable $service (e.g. "ftp") in /etc/inetd.conf . Using $pattern
              is  optional. It can be used to select a service.  You only need
              this option if you have two (or more) services of the same name.
              An  example:  you  have three ftp entries in the /etc/inetd.conf
              file (all disabled by default) and you want to enable the  entry
              which  uses the wu-ftpd daemon. To do this, use the pattern "wu-
              ftpd" (or any other regular expression that matches this entry).

       DebianNet::disable_service($service, $pattern);
              Disable SERVICE (e.g. "ftp") in /etc/inetd.conf . Using $pattern
              is optional (see above).
