A well-behaved daemon that does nothing (except log).
This program aims to act as an extremely basic daemon that can be run on Linux systems for testing purposes. It requires systemd, and provides systemd unit files, along with a converge module for installation.
It opens a unix doman socket and masks all unix signals. It will idle until a message is written to it's socket, or it receives a signal. Messages and signals are loggged with the current time in the log file. Nothing else is done.
