NAME

       dump_sockdfc -  Display contents of frozen configuratyion file for SOCKS server

SYNOPSIS

       dump_sockdfc [infile]

DESCRIPTION

       dump_sockdfc reads in a frozen configuration file for the SOCKS server and produces a listing of its contents on the standard output.

       The argument is optional; if omitted, /etc/sockd.fc is assumed.

       The  frozen  configuration file is produced by make_sockdfc and is essentially the memory image of the parsed configuration file. Using the
       frozen configuration file can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS server program since it no longer has to parse the file contents.

       When the SOCKS server starts, it always looks for the frozen configuration file /etc/sockd.fc first. If that file is  not  found,  it  then
       tries  to  use  the  plain-text	configuration file /etc/sockd.conf. If you use frozen configuration, you must remember to run make_sockdfc
       every time after you modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS server will continue to use the frozen file of a previous configuration.

FILES

       /etc/sockd.fc, /etc/sockd.conf
