|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm talkd
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Talkd
|
|
is the server that notifies a user that someone else wants to
|
|
initiate a conversation.
|
|
It acts as a repository of invitations, responding to requests
|
|
by clients wishing to rendezvous to hold a conversation.
|
|
In normal operation, a client, the caller,
|
|
initiates a rendezvous by sending a
|
|
.Tn CTL_MSG
|
|
to the server of
|
|
type
|
|
.Tn LOOK_UP
|
|
(see
|
|
.Aq Pa protocols/talkd.h ) .
|
|
This causes the server to search its invitation
|
|
tables to check if an invitation currently exists for the caller
|
|
(to speak to the callee specified in the message).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the lookup fails,
|
|
the caller then sends an
|
|
.Tn ANNOUNCE
|
|
message causing the server to
|
|
broadcast an announcement on the callee's login ports requesting contact.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When the callee responds, the local server uses the
|
|
recorded invitation to respond with the appropriate rendezvous
|
|
address and the caller and callee client programs establish a
|
|
stream connection through which the conversation takes place.
