[sword-devel] daemon wanted, willing to pay reasonable fee

[Karl Kleinpaste]

Embellish to taste.

But somebody just tell me why diatheke doesn't generate output when run
from the socket -- works fine at the terminal.

/etc/xinetd.d/sword:

service sword
{
    disable         = no
    port            = 22222
    socket_type     = stream
    protocol        = tcp
    wait            = no
    user            = root
    server          = /usr/local/bin/SwordDaemon
    type            = unlisted
}

/usr/local/bin/SwordDaemon:
