21 The in.daytimed service provides the server-side of the daytime proto‐
22 col. This protocol is used for debugging and bandwidth measurement and
23 is available on both TCP and UDP transports, through port 13.

25
26 The in.daytimed service is an inetd(1M) smf(5) delegated service. The
27 in.daytimed detects which transport is requested by examining the
28 socket it is passed by the inetd daemon.
29
30 TCP-based service Once a connection is established, the in.daytimed
31 generates the current date and time in ctime(3C)
32 format as 7-bit ASCII and sends it through the
33 connection. The server then closes the connection.
34 Any data received from the client side of the con‐
35 nection is discarded.
36
37
38 UDP-based service The in.daytimed listens for UDP datagrams. When a
39 datagram is received, the server generates the
40 current date and time in ctime(3C) format as 7-bit
41 ASCII and inserts it in a UDP datagram sent in
42 response to the client's request. Any received
43 data is ignored.
