Sendfile is a SAFT implementation for UNIX and serves as a tool for asynchronous sending of files in the Internet, conserving their file attributes. This ebuild contains the client and the server-software. I suggest you put it into net-misc/sendfile
Created attachment 4996 [details] The Ebuild for Sendfile 2.1a
Created attachment 4997 [details, diff] The Patchfile against the makeconfig-script
Created attachment 4998 [details] The config-file for running sendfile from xinetd
Created attachment 4999 [details] The Readme-file with gentoo-specific information for sendfile
Created attachment 5000 [details] The second version of the Ebuild for sendfile 2.1a Sorry, i absolutely forgot to add sys-apps/xinetd to RDEPEND! Could you please remove file 4996 and use this one instead?
Created attachment 5133 [details] Another sendfile ebuild (just for you consideration) This is another ebuild done by me, which comes without patches but uses sed to change thinks and also uses inetd instead of xinetd. Why install another package if we already have an inetd installed by default ? (correct me if this is wrong, at least on my system this is the case) This ebuild is just for consideration and not because I don't like the other solution.
no time. Enjoy Spanker, Wanker, or whatever you call yourself.
