NAME
Config::Inetd - Interface inetd's configuration file
SYNOPSIS
use Config::Inetd;
$inetd = Config::Inetd->new;
if ($inetd->is_enabled(telnet => 'tcp')) {
$inetd->disable(telnet => 'tcp');
}
print $inetd->dump_enabled;
print $inetd->dump_disabled;
print $inetd->{CONF}[6]; DESCRIPTION
Config::Inetd is an interface to inetd's configuration file inetd.conf; it simplifies checking and setting the enabled/disabled state of services and dumping them by their state.
CONSTRUCTOR
new
$inetd = Config::Inetd->new('/path/to/inetd.conf');Omitting the path to inetd.conf, will cause the default /etc/inetd.conf to be used.
METHODS
is_enabled
Checks whether a service is enlisted as enabled.
$retval = $inetd->is_enabled($service => $protocol);Returns 1 if the service is enlisted as enabled, 0 if enlisted as disabled, undef if the service does not exist.
enable
Enables a service.
$retval = $inetd->enable($service => $protocol);Returns 1 if the service has been enabled, 0 if no action has been taken.
It is recommended to preceedingly run is_enabled() to determine whether a service is disabled.
disable
Disables a service.
$retval = $inetd->disable($service => $protocol);Returns 1 if the service has been disabled, 0 if no action has been taken.
It is recommended to preceedingly run is_enabled() to determine whether a service is enabled.
dump_enabled
Dumps the enabled services.
@dump = $inetd->dump_enabled;Returns an array that consists of inetd configuration lines which are enabled services.
dump_disabled
Dumps the disabled services.
@dump = $inetd->dump_disabled;Returns an array that consists of inetd configuration lines which are disabled services.
INSTANCE DATA
The inetd configuration file is tied as instance data (newlines are preserved); it may be accessed via @{$inetd->{CONF}}.
