Hello everyone, I'm in the process of learning ports system. I've made some changes to an existing port (in the Makefile and a patch) for my use but thought about mailing them to the port maintainer. So now I need to be more serious ;)
The port (popa3d) is a pop3 daemon which can be run from inetd or as standalone. I've made a patch and added a knob to Makefile to make popa3d listen only on localhost (I run it as standalone with stunnel). I've never used inetd and I'm not sure what will happen if a connection is made from outside to a service which is configured to listen only on localhost. Is possible to run a service listening only on localhost with inetd? How to configure inetd in such case (an entry in /etc/hosts.allow?) or should I disable such configuration?
