NAME

ncad_addr - name of the Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator (NCA)
socket utility library

SYNOPSIS

/usr/lib/ncad_addr.so

DESCRIPTION

ncad_addr.so is the Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator (NCA) socket
utility library. Use this library with a web server to avoid support for
the PF_NCA family type socket. The web server can take advantage of NCA
functionality.


Interpose the ncad_addr interfaces before the interfaces in libsocket by
setting the environment variable LD_PRELOAD to ncad_addr.so so that it is
preloaded before libsocket.so.1. The ncad_addr.so interfaces will be
interposed only if NCA is enabled. See ncakmod(1).

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Interposing ncad_addr

Using Bourne shell syntax as an example, set LD_PRELOAD as shown below to
interpose the ncad_addr socket utility library:


LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/ncad_addr.so /usr/bin/httpd

FILES

should interpose this library.
