NAME

actived − a daemon to handle nnrpd requests for active file information.

SYNOPSIS

actived

DESCRIPTION

Actived is a process that keeps an in-memory copy of the news active(5) file along with its hashed index and serves requests for active file information from nnrpd(8) clients. This saves significants amounts of memory for each nnrpd client and also reduces its startup time as it no longer needs to index the active file. The process is able to handle many requests as second and should improve the overall performance of news reader machines.

Actived is enabled with the ’’activedenable’’ option in inn.conf(5) and is started by inndstart(8). The ’’activedupdate’’ option determines how often the in-memory copy of the active file is updated and the ’’activedport’’ option allows one to specify the UDP port to send/receive requests.

The process writes its process ID into a file pathrun/actived.pid on startup. The process remains active until killed manually. If it is killed or dies for some reason, clients will revert to direct access to the active file, which will be a lot slower.
