I'd never heard of "superserver" before, so it's likely others hadn't
either. See this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super-server
Which links to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inetd
and this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ucspi-tcp
It also links to the init system that shall not be mentioned, but
that's of little interest.
Thanks! Now I know something I didn't know yesterday. Some day soon
I'll try out ucspi-tcp.
