NAME
vlmcsdmulti - a multi-call binary containing vlmcs(1) and vlmcsd(8)
SYNOPSIS
vlmcsdmulti vlmcs [ options ] [ hostname|ip-address[:port] ] [ options
] | vlmcsd [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
vlmcsdmulti is a multi-call binary that contains vlmcs(1) and vlmcsd(8)
in a single binary. Since both programs share a lot of code and data,
the combined binary is significantly smaller than the sum of both
files.
vlmcsdmulti should not be called directly. Instead you may want to cre-
ate symbolic links named vlmcs and vlmcsd which point to vlmcsdmulti.
You then use these links to call the respective program. You may how-
ever call vlmcsdmulti followed by a complete command line of either
vlmcs(1) or vlmcsd(8).
Creating symbolic links in unixoid operating systems
cd to the directory containing vlmcsdmulti and type
ln -s vlmcsdmulti vlmcsd
ln -s vlmcsdmulti vlmcs
You may use a destination directory, e.g.
ln -s vlmcsdmulti /usr/local/sbin/vlmcsd
ln -s vlmcsdmulti /usr/local/bin/vlmcs
Ensure that vlmcsdmulti has execute permissions. You can do that by
typing "chmod 755 vlmcsdmulti". See chmod(1) for details.
Creating symbolic links in Windows (Vista and higher only)
cd to the directory containing vlmcsdmulti and type
mklink vlmcsd.exe vlmcsdmulti.exe
mklink vlmcs.exe vlmcsdmulti.exe
You may use a destination directory, e.g.
mklink C:\tools\vlmcsd.exe vlmcsdmulti.exe
mklink C:\tools\vlmcs.exe vlmcsdmulti.exe
Memory considerations
While you definitely save disk space by using vlmcsdmulti you will need
more RAM when you run vlmcsdmulti as a daemon (KMS server) instead of
vlmcsd. You should consider running vlmcsdmulti via an internet super-
server like inetd(8) or xinetd(8).
BUGS
vlmcsdmulti has the same bugs as vlmcs(1) and vlmcsd(8).
