Description
This manual page documents briefly the thpot command. This manual page was written for the Debian
distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in
the GNU Info format; see below.
thpot is a program that enables you to fake services by configuring it to be executed through either
xinetd or inetd. All the connection attempts and sessions to simulated services are logged under
