NAME

       writesrv - Lets users send messages to and receive messages from a remote system.

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/writesrv

DESCRIPTION

       The  writesrv daemon allows users to send messages to users on a remote system, and to receive responses from users on a remote system with
       the write command.

       The writesrv command receives incoming requests from a write command and creates a server process  to  handle  the  request.   This  server
       process communicates with the client process (write) and provides whatever services are requested.

       To perform these services, the writesrv daemon creates a socket on the port defined in the /etc/services file.  All requests for service go
       as messages to this socket.

       STARTING AND STOPPING writesrv.

       You can cause the writesrv daemon to be started during system boot with /sbin/init.d/write. The writesrv daemon starts automatically if the
       WRITESRV variable is defined properly in /etc/re.config. To start writesrv automatically during system boot, do the following as superuser.
	rcmgr set WRITESRV   yes

       To prevent writesrv from starting automatically during system boot, do the following as superuser:
	rcmgr set WRITESRV   no

       By default, writesrv is not set and therefore /usr/sbin/writesrv does not run.

       You can start the writesrv daemon manually as follows:
	/sbin/init.d/write   start

       You can stop writesrv manually as follows:
	/sbin/init.d/write   stop

NOTES

       If  the writesrv daemon terminates abnormally (that is, for a system crash, a power failure, or the kill -9 command), someone must manually
       clean out the /usr/spool/writesrv directory to remove any files left behind.
