Interpositioning Library for Door Server Daemon Support

Many web servers use AF_INET sockets. By default, NCA uses AF_NCA sockets. To correct this situation, an interpositioning library is provided. The new library is loaded in front of the standard socket library, libsocket.so. The library call bind() is interposed by the new library, ncad_addr.so. If the status is enabled in /etc/nca/ncakmod.conf, the version of Apache that is included with the Solaris 9 release is already set up to call this library. If you are using IWS or Netscape servers, see How to Load the NCA Socket Utility Library to use the new library.
