rfudaemon - Remote File Sharing daemon
SYNOPSIS
rfudaemon
AVAILABILITY
This program is available with the
RFS
software installation option.
Refer to
[a manual with the abbreviation INSTALL]
for information on how to install optional software.
DESCRIPTION
The
RFS
daemon,
rfudaemon,
is started automatically by
rfstart.8
and runs as a daemon process while Remote File Sharing is active.
It listens for unexpected events, such as broken
network connections and forced unmounts, and invokes
rfuadmin.8
to execute the appropriate administrative procedures.
Events recognized by
rfudaemon
are as follows:
- disconnect
-
A link to a remote resource has been cut.
rfudaemon
executes
rfuadmin,
with two arguments:
disconnect
and the name of the disconnected resource.
- fumount
-
A remote server machine has forced an unmount of a resource
a local machine has mounted.
rfudaemon
executes
rfuadmin,
with two arguments:
fumount
and the name of the disconnected resource.
- getumsg
-
A remote user-level program has sent a message
to the local
rfudaemon.
Currently the only message sent is
fuwarn,
which notifies
rfuadmin
that a resource is about to be unmounted.
rfudaemon
sends
rfuadmin
the
fuwarn,
the resource name, and the number of seconds in
which the forced unmount will occur.
- lastumsg
-
The local machine wants to stop the
rfudaemon
(rfstop(8)).
This causes
rfudaemon
to exit.
