X Font Server

The X Font Server is a TCP/IP-based service that serves font files to its clients. Clients connect to the server to request a font set, and the server reads the font files off the disk and serves them to the clients. The X Font Server daemon consists of a server binary at /usr/bin/xfs. The daemon is normally started from inetd. However, for the current sample, assume that the correct entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file has been disabled (for example, by using the fsadmin –d command) so that the daemon is under sole control of the Oracle Solaris Cluster software.
