63 | <para><command>systemd-activate</command> may be used to launch a socket-activated service binary from the command |
64 | line for testing purposes. It may also be used to launch individual instances of the service binary per connection. | |
2ca0435b ZJS |
65 | </para> |
66 | ||
ff9b60f3 | 67 | <para>The daemon to launch and its options should be specified |
2ca0435b ZJS |
68 | after options intended for <command>systemd-activate</command>. |
69 | </para> | |
70 | ||
eef0a274 LP |
71 | <para>If the <option>--inetd</option> option is given, the socket file descriptor will be used as the standard |
72 | input and output of the launched process. Otherwise, standard input and output will be inherited, and sockets will | |
73 | be passed through file descriptors 3 and higher. Sockets passed through <varname>$LISTEN_FDS</varname> to | |
74 | <command>systemd-activate</command> will be passed through to the daemon, in the original positions. Other sockets | |
75 | specified with <option>--listen=</option> will use consecutive descriptors. By default, | |
76 | <command>systemd-activate</command> listens on a stream socket, use <option>--datagram</option> and | |
77 | <option>--seqpacket</option> to listen on datagram or sequential packet sockets instead (see below). | |
