Quote of the day Server

This server runs on port 17 and sends a quote wheh a client connects to it. It is an implementation of RFC 865

Install

$ npm install -g qotd-is-not-dead

Run

You'll need to run it with elevated privileges since it uses a reserved port.

You need to specify a filename with the QOTD environment variable. That file should contain your quote of the day

$ sudo QOTD=fancy-quotes.txt qotd-is-not-dead

You can then update the file while the server is running and the newer version will be served on the following request.
