Source: userv Section: admin Priority: extra Maintainer: Ian Jackson Standards-Version: 2.1.1.0 Package: userv Architecture: any Depends: ${shlibs:Depends} Description: `user services' - program call across trust boundaries userv allows one program to invoke another when only limited trust exists between them. It is a tool which can be used to avoid having to give other system services root privilege, and which allows users to more securely have programs provide services to others. . userv can be useful as `glue' for system administrators; there are not many full-blown userv-using applications yet.
