Hi, I'm in the process of adding systemd native sockets to a service (rather than using inetd compatibility) and am trying to get my head around the proper way to configure the unit files so that the socket is optional rather than required but allowing restarting of the socket unit.
https://github.com/yrutschle/sslh/pull/56 [root@hoglaptop ~]# systemctl cat sslh.socket # /etc/systemd/system/sslh.socket [Socket] ListenStream=10.81.60.229:443 ListenStream=10.81.60.229:444 ListenStream=10.81.60.229:445 ListenStream=10.81.60.229:446 ListenStream=10.81.60.229:447 FreeBind=true [Install] WantedBy=sockets.target [root@hoglaptop ~]# systemctl cat sslh.service # /etc/systemd/system/sslh.service [Service] ExecStart=/home/hogarthj/workspace/github-sslh/sslh-fork -v -f --ssh 127.0.0.1:22 KillMode=process I want a user to be able to systemctl start sslh and use listening addresses in /etc/sslh.cfg as always (so I'm reluctant to put a straight Sockets= in the service unit file) but as it stands the lazy activation of sslh works a treat however once the service is activated it is listening on the sockets so it's not possible to systemctl restart sslh.socket to change an IP or add a port without stopping sslh.service first ... Is what I'm trying to do flat out a bad idea and impossible or is there a way of ordering this in such a way that a restart of sslh.socket stops sslh.service in the process ... or something to attain the goal of a restartable socket unit and an associated that has not explicit need of the socket?
