Technical data

SET SERVICE
/ADDRESS=IP_address
Optional. Default: 0.0.0.0 (all local interfaces receive incoming requests for the
service).
If you have multiple Internet interfaces and, therefore, more than one IP address,
/ADDRESS specifies the particular address on which incoming requests are
received.
To define a service name more than once, use /ADDRESS with different values
for each instance. A reason to duplicate a service name, for example, is that your
local host has three interfaces and you want to make a service available on two of
them. Each service/interface pair must be unique.
/FILE=startup_file
Required if defining a new service entry; optional if modifying an existing one.
Name of the service’s startup command file.
/FLAGS= {[NO]APPLICATION_PROXY | [NO]MULTITHREAD | [NO]PROXY |
[NO]CASE_INSENSITIVE}
Optional.
The flag options are:
• [NO]APPLICATION_PROXY. Default: NOAPPLICATION_PROXY.
The service does its own proxy checking. This allows connections based on
defined proxies.
Applies to: remote shell (RSH) and line printer daemon (LPD).
Note
The ROOT account does not require a communication proxy in the proxy
database. The setting of /FLAGS=APPLICATION_PROXY flag is not
relevant.
• [NO]MULTITHREAD. Default: NOMULTITHREAD.
While connecting a socket to a remote host and passing the socket to the
requested server, the auxiliary server continues to listen for incoming
requests.
• [NO]PROXY. Default: NOPROXY.
User account information is from the proxy database.
• [NO]CASE_INSENSITIVE. Default: CASE_INSENSITIVE.
Case sensitivity of the remote user name in the proxy database.
Use with /PROXY.
/LIMIT=n
Optional.
Maximum number of copies of the requested service allowed to run on the system.
If the maximum number is reached, any additional requests for the service are
rejected.
