proplistd(8)proplistd(8)NAMEproplistd - Services remote NFS compatible property list requests
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/proplistd numthreads
DESCRIPTION
The proplistd daemon services sideband protocol requests from NFS
clients for property list operations. Requests may be to get, set, and
or delete the property list associated with an NFS served file system
object.
The proplistd is a multi-threaded ONC/RPC server. The numthreads argu‐
ment specifies the number of preallocated service threads. The recom‐
mended number of service threads is 1/4th the number of nfsd threads.
The object against which the proplist() operation is performed must be
exported with appropriate access: read access for getproplist() opera‐
tions, and write access for setproplist() and delproplist() operations.
The proplistd daemon is typically started by nfssetup.
See the acl(4) reference page for a discussion of the nfs-flatten-mode.
