From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedipus,
Continuing his journey to Thebes, Oedipus encounters the Sphinx who
would stop all those who traveled to Thebes and ask them a riddle. If
the travelers were unable to answer correctly, they were eaten by the
Sphinx; if they were successful, they would be able to continue their
journey.
Short, no collisions, and has an 'x' to supply coolness. I am partial to
"prefix," though, and agree that "bouncer" would just confuse people.
But then oedipus is more widely know for what he did with his mother.
Yeah, I was thinking more along the lines of "Sphinx." I'm saving
"Oedipus" for the daemon that accidentally SIGKILLs its parent process
after removing its own read permissions from /var/run.
