Dicom Services as Daemon

#1 Post by sivasankari »

Hi all,
I would like to start the DICOM services providers(Store, Worklist and Print) as a Daemon in Linux environment.
Please give some tips to develop the code.

Thank You,
Shankari

None of the DCMTK tools can be started from inetd. Most of them, however, can be installed suid root and started from a non-root user. In this case they will open the listen socket (which may be privileged) and will then revert to the effective uid of the calling user. With the next release, imagectn will also support a setuid/setgid operation in which the effective user will be taken from the config file, simplifying start from /etc/init.d scripts.
