Update: hostated renamed to hoststated.

Contributed by jj on 2007-01-10 from the stateful hosts dept.

For those of you wanting to test the host state daemon recently added, note that it has been renamed in -current.
It's still not hooked into the general build system, so you have to build it manually as stated earlier.

  You read it wrong... it was host ate d, or a daemon to keep track of how many hosts were eaten by the server.

    Wow - is this able to be adapted for use as a LART? New technology is always useful in the war...

Remember to add the privsep user to master.passwd before runing hoststated.

_hoststated:*:89:89::0:0:HostState Daemon:/var/empty:/sbin/nologin

Would be nice if this not only had

rdr-anchor "hostated/*"
but also
anchor "hostated/*"

for real dynamic rule changes.

  what do you mean ? look at the man pages, you can specify a tag for rules that will allow you to filter related traffic.

Check it by running /usr/bin/hostate --where-my-bitches-at
