srvtab

Service Field

The service field contains the name of the service the caller may request. This field consists of a single word or abbreviation and is used to match the service string that appears after the first period in the requester's dialstring. A single asterisk may be used to match any requested service and the special entry "-" is used to match the case where no specific service was requested by the dialstring.

You may add additional unique services to the server table, but the following
alphabetically listed services are distributed as part of the standard product:
