<title>Introduction to <application>ucspi-tcp</application></title>
<para>The <application>ucspi-tcp</application> package consists of a suite of
tools that allow the easy creation of client-server tcp daemons. <command>
tcpserver</command> is a more secure alternative to <command>inetd</command>.
It has built in functionality for rule based access control, and
will gracefully defer connections when the configurable maximum load is reached,
unlike <command>inetd</command>. <command>tcpserver</command> is also
recommended for use with <application>qmail</application>, and was written by
the same author.</para>
