NAME
       Net::Server::Proto - Net::Server Protocol compatibility layer

SYNOPSIS
	   NOTE: beginning in Net::Server 2.005, the default value for
		 ipv is IPv* meaning that if no host is passed, or
		 a hostname is past, all available socket types will be
		 bound.	 You can force IPv4 only by adding an ipv => 4
		 configuration in any of the half dozen ways we let you
		 specify it.

	   # Net::Server::Proto and its accompanying modules are not
	   # intended to be used outside the scope of Net::Server.

	   # That being said, here is how you use them.	 This is
	   # only intended for anybody wishing to extend the
	   # protocols to include some other set (ie maybe a
	   # database connection protocol)

	   use Net::Server::Proto;

	   my @info = Net::Server::Proto->parse_info(
	       $port,		 # port to connect to
	       $default_host,	 # host to use if none found in port
	       $default_proto,	 # proto to use if none found in port
	       $default_ipv,	 # default of IPv6 or IPv4 if none found in port
	       $server_obj,	 # Net::Server object
	   );

	   my @raw_info = Net::Server::Proto->get_addr_info($host, $port, $proto);
	   # returns arrayref of resolved ips, ports, and ipv values

	   my $sock = Net::Server::Proto->object({
	       port  => $port,
	       host  => $host,
	       proto => $proto,
	       ipv   => $ipv, # * (IPv*) if false (default false)
	   }, $server);

	   # Net::Server::Proto will attempt to interface with
	   # sub modules named similar to Net::Server::Proto::TCP
	   # Individual sub modules will be loaded by
	   # Net::Server::Proto as they are needed.

	   use Net::Server::Proto::TCP; # or UDP or UNIX etc

	   # Return an object which is a sub class of IO::Socket
	   # At this point the object is not connected.
	   # The method can gather any other information that it
	   # needs from the server object.
	   my $sock = Net::Server::Proto::TCP->object({
	       port  => $port,
	       host  => $host,
	       proto => $proto,
	       ipv   => 6, # IPv6 - default is * - can also be '4'
	   }, $server);

	   # Log that a connection is about to occur.
	   # Use the facilities of the passed Net::Server object.
	   $sock->log_connect( $server );

	   # Actually bind to port or socket file.  This
	   # is typically done by calling the configure method.
	   $sock->connect();

	   # Allow for rebinding to an already open fileno.
	   # Typically will just do an fdopen.
	   $sock->reconnect();

	   ### Return a unique identifying string for this sock that
	   # can be used when reconnecting.
	   my $str = $sock->hup_string();

	   # Return the proto that is being used by this module.
	   my $proto = $sock->NS_proto();

DESCRIPTION
       Net::Server::Proto is an intermediate module which returns IO::Socket
       style objects blessed into its own set of classes (ie
       Net::Server::Proto::TCP, Net::Server::Proto::UNIX).

       Only three or four protocols come bundled with Net::Server.  TCP, UDP,
       UNIX, UNIXDGRAM, and SSLEAY.  TCP is an implementation of SOCK_STREAM
       across an INET socket.  UDP is an implementation of SOCK_DGRAM across
       an INET socket.	UNIX uses a unix style socket file with the
       SOCK_STREAM protocol.  UNIXGRAM uses a unix style socket file with the
       SOCK_DGRAM protocol.  SSLEAY is actually just a layer on top of TCP but
       uses Net::SSLeay to read and write from the stream.

       The protocol that is passed to Net::Server can be the name of another
       module which contains the protocol bindings.  If a protocol of
       MyServer::MyTCP was passed, the socket would be blessed into that
       class.  If Net::Server::Proto::TCP was passed, it would get that class.
       If a bareword, such as tcp, udp, unix, unixdgram or ssleay, is passed,
       the word is uppercased, and post pended to "Net::Server::Proto::" (ie
       tcp = Net::Server::Proto::TCP).

METHODS
       Protocol names used by the Net::Server::Proto should be sub classes of
       IO::Socket.  These classes should also contain, as a minimum, the
       following methods should be provided:

       object
	   Return an object which is a sub class of IO::Socket At this point
	   the object is not connected.	 The method can gather any other
	   information that it needs from the server object.  Arguments are
	   default_host, port, and a Net::Server style server object.

       log_connect
	   Log that a connection is about to occur.  Use the facilities of the
	   passed Net::Server object.  This should be an informative string
	   explaining which properties are being used.

       connect
	   Actually bind to port or socket file.  This is typically done
	   internally by calling the configure method of the IO::Socket super
	   class.

       reconnect
	   Allow for rebinding to an already open fileno.  Typically will just
	   do an fdopen using the IO::Socket super class.

       hup_string
	   Return a unique identifying string for this sock that can be used
	   when reconnecting.  This is done to allow information including the
	   file descriptor of the open sockets to be passed via %ENV during an
	   exec.  This string should always be the same based upon the
	   configuration parameters.

       NS_port
	   Net::Server protocol.  Return the port that is being used by this
	   module.  If the underlying type is UNIX then port will actually be
	   the path to the unix socket file.

       NS_host
	   Net::Server protocol.  Return the protocol that is being used by
	   this module.	 This does not have to be a registered or known
	   protocol.

       NS_proto
	   Net::Server protocol.  Return the protocol that is being used by
	   this module.	 This does not have to be a registered or known
	   protocol.

       show
	   Similar to log_connect, but simply shows a listing of which
	   properties were found.  Can be used at any time.

HOST
       The hostname may be either blank, '*', be an IPv4 address, an IPv6
       address, a bare hostname, or a hostname with IPv* specifications.

	   host => "127.0.0.1",	 # an IPv4 address

	   host => "::1",	 # an IPv6 address

	   host => 'localhost',	 # addresses returned by localhost (default IPv* - IPv4 and/or IPv6)

	   host => 'localhost/IPv*',  # same

	   ipv	=> '*',
	   host => 'localhost',	 # same

	   ipv	=> 6,
	   host => 'localhost',	 # addresses returned by localhost (IPv6)

	   ipv	=> 'IPv4 IPv6',
	   host => 'localhost',	 # addresses returned by localhost (requires IPv6 and IPv4)

	   host => '*',		 # any local interfaces (default IPv*)

	   ipv	=> '*',
	   host => '*',		 # any local interfaces (any IPv6 or IPv4)

	   host => '*/IPv*',	 # same

IPV
       In addition to being able to specify IPV as a separate parameter, ipv
       may also be passed as a part of the host, as part of the port, as part
       of the protocol or may be specified via $ENV{'IPV'}.  The order of
       precedence is as follows:

	    1) Explicit IPv4 or IPv6 address - wins
	    2) ipv specified in port
	    3) ipv specified in host
	    4) ipv specified in proto
	    5) ipv specified in default settings
	    6) ipv specified in $ENV{'IPV'}
	    7) default to IPv*

PORT
       The port is the most important argument passed to the sub module
       classes and to Net::Server::Proto itself.  For tcp, udp, and ssleay
       style ports, the form is generally host:port/protocol,
       [host]:port/protocol, host|port|protocol, host/port, or port.  If host
       is a numerical IPv6 address it should be enclosed in square brackets to
       avoid ambiguity in parsing a port number, e.g.: "[::1]:80".  Separating
       with spaces, commas, or pipes is also allowed, e.g. "::1, 80".  For
       unix sockets the form is generally socket_file|unix or socket_file.

       To help overcome parsing ambiguity, it is also possible to pass port as
       a hashref (or as an array of hashrefs) of information such as:

	   port => {
	       host  => "localhost",
	       ipv   => 6, # could also pass IPv6 (* is default)
	       port  => 20203,
	       proto => 'tcp',
	   }

       If a hashref does not include host, ipv, or proto - it will use the
       default value supplied by the general configuration.

       A socket protocol family PF_INET or PF_INET6 is derived from a
       specified address family of the binding address. A PF_INET socket can
       only accept IPv4 connections. A PF_INET6 socket accepts IPv6
       connections, but may also accept IPv4 connections, depending on OS and
       its settings. For example, on FreeBSD systems setting a sysctl
       net.inet6.ip6.v6only to 0 will allow IPv4 connections to a PF_INET6
       socket.	By default on linux, binding to host [::] will accept IPv4 or
       IPv6 connections.

       The Net::Server::Proto::object method returns a list of objects
       corresponding to created sockets. For Unix and INET sockets the list
       typically contains just one element, but may return multiple objects
       when multiple protocol families are allowed or when a host name
       resolves to multiple local binding addresses.  This is particularly
       true when an ipv value of '*' is passed in allowing hostname
       resolution.

       You can see what Net::Server::Proto parsed out by looking at the logs
       to see what log_connect said.  You could also include a post_bind_hook
       similar to the following to debug what happened:

	   sub post_bind_hook {
	       my $self = shift;
	       foreach my $sock ( @{ $self->{server}->{sock} } ){
		   $self->log(2,$sock->show);
	       }
	   }
