3rd Berkeley Distribution                                                                           SENDFILED(8)

sendfiled  is  a  server  process  (daemon) for the Simple Asynchrnous File Transfer (SAFT) protocol. The
       server is normally called by inetd (8) and receives files or messages sent by SAFT-clients to the.  Files
       are stored in the recipient's spool and messages are written to the recipient's terminals.

       The  -4  and  -6  options  explicitly force IPv4 or IPv6 connections. By default, the program will try to
       resolve the name given, and choose the appropriate protocol  automatically.  If  resolving  a  host  name
       returns  both  IPv4  and  IPv6  addresses,  sendfiled  will try to use the adresses in the order they are
       returned by the resolver.

       If the -d option is specified, debugging information is written to /var/log/sendfiled.dbg.

       If the -f option  is  specified,  sendfiled  prints  the  free  disk  space  on  /var/spool/sendfile  and
       terminates.

       If the -q option is specified, sendfiled processes once the outgoing spool and terminates.

       If  the  -Q option is specified, sendfiled starts an outgoing spool daemon, which runs in an endless loop
       in the background.

       On startup sendfiled reads  its  configuration  file  /etc/sendfile.cf,  but  you  can  specify  with  -cconfigfile an alternate configuration file.

       sendfiled  is also an O-SAFT server, which means authenticated clients can fetch files. See fetchfile (4)
       for details.

       sfdconf is the sendfiled configuration helper program. It has its own usage help, just type sfdconf-h

/etc/sendfile.deny
             Users which are not allowed to receive files or messages.

       /etc/sendfile.allow
             Users which are ONLY allowed to receive files or messages. If this file has  at  least  one  entry,
             then /etc/sendfile.deny will be ignored.

       /etc/sendfile.aliases
             Alias names for local users. Format is:
                alias realname

       /var/spool/sendfile/LOG/in
             Log file for incoming files.

       /var/spool/sendfile/LOG/out
             Log file for outgoing files.

       /etc/sendfile.cf
             The system configuration file. See sfdconf-iconfig for a complete description and default values.
