KFD(8)

💖 KFD(8) — the system manager's manual, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, listen, we're doing the kfd page today — that's KFD from section 8 of the System Manager's Manual, and yes she's a whole daemon, and yes she's iconic. let's go 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

kfd — receive forwarded tickets

like. she receives forwarded tickets. that's the whole vibe. that's the job. periodt. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

kfd [-p port | --port=port] [-i | --inetd] [-R regpag | --regpag=regpag]
    [-h | --help] [--version]

no cap, that's exactly how you summon her, every bracket, every pipe, untouched. 🙈

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so this one is the daemon for kf(1) — she's the background bestie that keeps the whole ticket-forwarding thing running while you live your life. 🦋

here's every option she supports, and i mean every one, i'm not skipping a single flag, that would be so not slay of me:

• -p port, --port=port — the port to listen to 🎧
• -i, --inetd — not started from inetd 🙃 (yes that's what it says. that's literally what the page says. i'm just the messenger, and the messenger is wearing a bow 🎀)
• -R regpag, --regpag=regpag — the path to the regpag binary 📁
• -h, --help — bestie just wants to help you out 💖
• --version — she'll tell you who she is 👑

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

put the following in /etc/inetd.conf, like, verbatim, do not freestyle it:

kf      stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/heimdal/libexec/kfd        kfd

see how the last word is kfd again? that's her showing up to her own party twice. main character energy fr fr. 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• kf(1) — her bestie, obviously, they come as a set 💞

okay that's the whole page, you ate it, go forth and forward some tickets 🫶

this was the KFD(8) page from Debian, dated July 2, 2000, and that date is lowkey giving vintage but she's still serving ⭐ — anyway mwah, bye bestie 💅💖
