Subject: (6.5) How do I talk to innd from C or Perl?
Rich Salz says: If you are writing C, look at doc/inndcomm.3 and include/inndcomm.h; they include all you need to do any ctlinnd command (in fact, ctlinnd itself is little more than a call to the library). Hacking up a Perl subroutine that spoke to innd's Unix-domain control socket should be fairly straightforward but hasn't yet been written. ------------------------------ [Source: INN FAQ Part 6 Archive-name: usenet/software/inn-faq/part6] [Last Changed: $Date: 1997/07/01 01:25:41 $ $Revision: 2.21 $] [Copyright: 1997 Heiko Rupp, portions by Tom Limoncelli, Rich Salz, et al.]
