#######from tcpserver page########
tcpserver waits for connections from TCP clients. For each connection, it
runs prog, with descriptor 0 reading from the network and descriptor 1
writing to the network. It also sets up several environment variables.

I were asking what that zero meant ? The same I dont figured when I would be
"writing" to the network.

I understand it you "pipes" the stdout and error to the logger. Great !
But see as is configured in "Life with qmail"
##########################################
Create the /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run file:
#!/bin/sh
QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild`
NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild`
MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
2>&1
####****** here the stdout and error are redirected to ???? I dont
understand !
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Note: concurrencyincoming isn't a standard qmail control file. It's a
feature of the above script.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Create the concurrencyincoming control file:
echo 20 > /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming
chmod 644 /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming
Create the /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/log/run file:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t
/var/log/qmail/smtpd
#######*******I dont undertand how to "multilog" catch the output and error
from qmail-smptd ???
