(x)inetd would shut a port under heavy net-connection load for a short period, but systemd seems to shut it permanently under those conditions. For systemd to replace inetd-type socket activation, it needs to have a timeout on the disable. This probably isn't a high priority though, because very few things support inetd-type modes anymore. -- Chris Adams <li...@cmadams.net> _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
