In the previous recipes, we have seen how to create a TCP/IP server, manage the Linux signals, and how to create a Linux daemon. Through this newly acquired knowledge, in this new recipe we will be able to build a TCP/IP server that includes all the necessary considerations to be daemonized.
Building a TCP/IP Linux server and daemonizing it
Getting ready
We will start from the project created in the first recipe, take that project and clone it in your filesystem; it will be the starting point.
In the code of this project, we should add the signal management and the parts necessary to be compatible with systemd, so that it can be daemonized.
Let's start!
