pkg-descr

dbskkd-cdb is a dictionary server for the SKK Japanese input method
system. dbskkd-cdb is based on the code of skkserv (the original SKK
server) 3.9.3, using the cdb constant database package of
D. J. Bernstein (DJB) for faster dictionary access.

dbskkd-cdb is compatible with skkserv on the protocol behavior. It is
called from "super-server" programs such as inetd or tcpserver, and the
I/O operation is solely with the stdio interface, so the code is compact
and the access to the server can be easily restricted.

pkg-message

Note for inetd users:

Add following line to /etc/inetd.conf
skkserv stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/dbskkd-cdb dbskkd-cdb

If dbskkd-cdb 1.01 was running, please update your /etc/inetd.conf line.

Also note that dbskkd-cdb should run as root (not 'nobody' as of 1.01),
since it chroot(8)s to the default dictionary directory, ${PREFIX}/share/skk.
