  go             Linux Server starts with a number of system services that provide local and network users with a system-functional interface for Linux that is directly targeted to applications and users. The programs that provide these services are executed by daemons running in the background (daemons). A daemon is a process that has a long lifetime. They are independent of the control terminal and periodically perform certain tasks or wait to handle certain occurrences. They often start when the system boots and terminate when the system shuts down. Linux systems have many daemons, and most servers are implemented with daemons. At the same time, the daemon completes many system tasks, such as job planning process crond, printing process lqd and so on. Some books and materials also call the daemon a "service". Choose which daemons to run, depending on your specific needs. To view the services that the system can provide for the daemons, run as root with the following methods:

#ntsysv

Ii. How the Daemon works
In client/server mode. Server snooping (Listen) waits for a client to connect on a specific port. After the connection is successful, the server and client communicate through the port. The daemon's job is to open a port and wait for (Listen) to enter the connection. If the client generates a connection request, the daemon creates (Fork) a child server to respond to the connection, and the primary server continues to listen for other service requests.

2. How the Daemon Works:
(1) Run a separate daemon
  The standalone daemon is managed by the Init script, and the scripts for all the independently running daemons are in the/etc/rc.d/init.d/directory. System services are run independently of daemons including: Syslogd and Cron. Running an independent daemon is called: stand-alone. It Unix The access mode of the traditional C/s mode. Server snooping (Listen) waits for the client to be online on a feature port. If the client generates a connection request, the daemon creates (Fork) a child server to respond to the connection, and the primary server continues to listen. To keep multiple child server pools waiting for the next client request. The operating principle of stand-alone mode is shown in Figure 1.


 
           Figure 1 Stand-alone working mode
Network Services operating in stand-alone mode have route, gated. In addition, we are most familiar with the Web server: Ap Ache and mail server sendmail, domain name server bind. Because these loads are very large on the server, pre-creating a child server can be done through the customer's service speed. In Linux Services initiated through stand-alone operating mode in the system are initiated by symbolic links in the corresponding runlevel below/etc/rc.d/.

(2) xinetd mode
from the daemon concept, you can see that For each service that the system is going through, it must run a daemon that listens for a port connection, which usually means a waste of resources. To solve this problem, Linux introduces the concept of "Network Daemon Service Program". The network daemon used by Redhat Linux 9.0 is xinted (eXtended Internet daemon). The xinted mode is also known as the Internet super-server (super server) compared to the stand-alone mode. XINETD can listen to multiple specified ports at the same time, when accepting user requests, he can initiate different network service processes to handle these user requests depending on the port requested by the user. You can think of xinetd as a Management server that manages the startup service, decides to hand over a client request to that program, and then initiates the appropriate daemon. The operating principle of xinetd mode is shown in Figure 3.


 
            Figure 3  xinetd working mode
and stand-alone mode of operation, the system does not want each network service process to listen to its service ports. Running a single xinetd can simultaneously listen to all service ports, which reduces system overhead and protects system resources. However, for the large number of accesses and frequent concurrent access, xinetd wants to start the corresponding network service process frequently, which can result in degraded system performance. The view system provides the mode method for Linux services on the Linux command line you can use the Pstree command to see two different ways to start a network service. In general, the system has some high-load services: SendMail, Apache services are started separately. Other service types can be managed using XINETD Super server. To view the currently running daemons, you can use the command: "Pstree"

Third, daemon management tools
Linux offers three different daemon management tools: Redhat-config-services, NTSYSV, and Chkconfig, which can be used flexibly depending on the specific needs.
(1) redhat-config-services
Redhat-config-services is a graphical application that shows a description of each service and whether each service is started at boot time (runlevel 3, 4, 5) and allows you to start, stop, or restart which of the/ETC/RC.D/INIT.D SysV services, which xinetd services. To start the Service Configuration tool from the desktop, click "Main Menu"=>"system settings"=>"server Settings"=>"Service" on the panel, or at the shell prompt, type the command: "Redhat-config-services" (see Figure 4).



Figure 4 Redhat-config-services Configuration Tool
Redhat-config-services lists the services in/ETC/RC.D/INIT.D and the services controlled by XINETD. Click the service name in the list on the left to display a brief description of the service and its service status. If the service is not a xinetd service, the status window will show whether the service is currently running. If the service is controlled by xinetd, the status window will display the phrase "xinetd service. To start, stop, or restart a service immediately, select the service from the list, and then click the appropriate button on the toolbar (or select action from the Action drop-down menu). If the service is a xinetd service, the action buttons are disabled because they cannot be started or stopped individually. If you enable or disable the XINETD service by selecting or deselecting the check box next to the service name, you must restart xinetd by selecting "File"=>"Save Changes" from the dropdown menu and immediately enable or disable the XINETD service you have changed. The XINETD is also configured as an automatic memory setting. You can enable or disable multiple XINETD services at the same time, and then save the changes after the end.
(2) Ntsysv 
The NTSYSV tool provides a simple interface for activating or deactivating services. You can use NTSYSV to start or close a service managed by xinetd. You can also use NTSYSV to configure the runlevel. By default, only the current runlevel will be configured. To configure different runlevel, use the--level option to specify one or more run levels. For example, command NTSYSV--level 345 To configure run levels 3, 4, and 5. NTSYSV's working interface is shown in Figure 1. Use the up and down arrows to view the list up and down. Use the SPACEBAR to select or deselect services, or to press the OK and Cancel buttons. To switch between the list of services and the OK, cancel buttons, use the [Tab] key. * Indicates that a service is set to start. The [F1] key pops up a brief description of each service. 
(3) Chkconfig 
The Chkconfig command can also be used to activate and deactivate services. The Chkconfig--list command displays a list of system services and whether these services have been started (on) or stopped (off) at run level 0 through 6. Chkconfig can also be used to set whether a service is started or deactivated within a specified runlevel. For example, to deactivate the NFS service in RunLevel 3, 4, 5, use the following command: 
Chkconfig--level 345 NFS Off
Iv. reasonable selection of daemons to evade security risks
Running an unnecessary or vulnerable daemon will giveOperating SystemBring safety and performance impact. For system security, if any of the vulnerabilities in the operating system can cause the entire system to be compromised. Therefore, the best way to increase system security is to monitor the function of the system as much as possible. The article begins with an introduction to the important daemons, where "Crond, Syslog, keytable, xinetd, kudzu, iptables" are required to run, Echo, ECHO-UDP, daytime, DAYTIME-UDP, Chargen, CHARGEN-UDP is mainly to do the adjustment trial, ordinary users can not be used to close the basic.
The daemon at the beginning of the R word: rsh, rstatd, rsync, RuserSD, rwalld These commands are Berkley remote commands, because all start with the letter R, so called R* command. The primary use is to make one of the users on one computer remotely execute a program on another computer with the same account. However, the R command has been proven to present a security risk. For the daemons that are really needed, you should try to use the latest version of the program and increase its security. 
In addition, we have to choose a reasonable daemon such as innd is the process of running the newsgroup service, if the user does not do Usenet server, should be turned off.
