Package: nbd-server Priority: optional Version: 1.4-3 Source: nbd Architecture: __ARCH__ Maintainer: Paul A. Whittaker Section: System/Network Destination: any Depends: libwrap0, initscript, busybox (>= 1.11.2-1), libc6 (>= 2.7-1) Description: Network Block Device server Serves a local block device on the network, so that a Linux host using an NBD kernel driver can access it as if it were local to that host. . This provides a simple, low-level means of network-abstracting a client-side mass storage device. In most cases there will be more efficient alternatives, however. . This package was deliberately built from a very old version of the source code in order to avoid a dependency on large libraries (glib 2.0 and its prerequisites) that exists in newer versions. . This build includes TCP wrapper support (daemon name "nbd-server").
