.TH EXECNET 4
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
execnet \- network interface to program execution
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B execnet
|
|
[
|
|
.B -n
|
|
.I name
|
|
]
|
|
[
|
|
.B netdir
|
|
]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I Execnet
|
|
presents a network protocol directory
|
|
(see, for example,
|
|
.IR ip (3))
|
|
called
|
|
.IB netdir / name
|
|
(default
|
|
.BR /net/exec ).
|
|
.PP
|
|
Once the protocol directory exists, dialing
|
|
(see
|
|
.IR dial (2))
|
|
strings of
|
|
the form
|
|
.IB name ! cmd
|
|
will connect to a newly executed instance of
|
|
.IR cmd .
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
.I Execnet
|
|
can be used to connect to instances of u9fs
|
|
running on other hosts:
|
|
.EX
|
|
g% execnet
|
|
g% srv -m 'exec!ssh ny start-u9fs' ny /n/ny
|
|
.EE
|
|
This example assumes that the remote command
|
|
.B start-u9fs
|
|
executed on
|
|
.B ny
|
|
will start
|
|
.I u9fs
|
|
appropriately.
|
|
For example, it might be:
|
|
.EX
|
|
ny% cat start-u9fs
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
|
|
u9fs -na none -u $USER -l $HOME/tmp/u9fs.log
|
|
ny%
|
|
.EE
|
|
.SH SOURCE

|
.B /sys/src/cmd/execnet
|
|
.SH "SEE ALSO
|
|
.IR dial (2),
|
|
.IR ip (3),
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
Almost certainly:
|
|
.IR execnet
|
|
has only been tested as in the example shown.
