NAME
services - bcnu network services configuration file

SYNOPSIS
BCNUHOME/etc/services

DESCRIPTION
services is the network configuration file used by the bcnu client and server program to map ports to service names. It also provides a text message for services which don't provide a readable response

The format of the file is similar to /etc/services

comments preceded by a hash (#) and blank lines are allowed.
