  32. It will, they all do.

  36. InetD is always running, for it is your own personal port monitor/manager.
  37.  
  38. >So, could I run this from my amos program, like say Exec "Inetd blah blah

  40. a
  41. >game?
  42.  
  43. No, you set up an entry in your database for InetD like this:
  44.  
  45. Port 453 myprog parameters
  46.  
  47. and when someone addresses your system on port 453, it will run your program
  48. and pass the parameters you specify to it, allowing you to make a tcp
  49. connection.

  51. >Also, is the Inetd system used in Miami and genesis different? Would I need
  52. >two routines to handel each?
  53.  
  54. InetD is just a program launcher, basically. It works the same across the
  55. board. You'll have to find out how the prameters are dealt with, but amos can
  56. read them.
