SYNOPSIS
/usr/libexec/rpc.sprayd
DESCRIPTION
rpc.sprayd is a server which records packets sent by the spray(8) command
and sends a traffic report to the originator of the packets. The
rpc.sprayd daemon is normally invoked by inetd(8).
rpc.sprayd uses an RPC protocol defined in /usr/include/rpcsvc/spray.x.
SEE ALSOspray(8)SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
As rpc.sprayd responds to packets generated by spray(8), remote users can
cause a denial of network service against the local host by saturating
requests to rpc.sprayd.
