# Daemon Client Socket—Establishing Connections

The Rendezvous daemon (`rvd`) and the Rendezvous routing daemon (`rvrd`) both open a client socket to establish communication with their clients (Rendezvous programs). The `-listen` option to `rvd` and `rvrd` lets you specify where the daemon should listen for new client connections. Conversely, Rendezvous programs request connections with the daemon at that client socket. The `daemon` parameter of the transport creation function determines how and where to find the Rendezvous daemon and establish communication.

Each transport object establishes a communication conduit with a Rendezvous daemon, as described in these steps:

Procedure

| 1. | The daemon process opens a (TCP) client socket, and waits for a client to request a connection.

The `-listen` option of the Rendezvous daemon specifies where the daemon listens for new client transports.

| 2. | The program calls the transport creation function, which contacts the daemon at the client socket specified in its `daemon` parameter.

The `daemon` parameter of the transport creation function must correspond to the `‑listen` option of the daemon process; that is, they must specify the same communication type and socket number.

If no daemon process is listening on the specified client socket, then the transport creation call automatically starts a new daemon process (which listens on the specified client socket) and then attempts to connect to it.

| 3. | The daemon process opens a conduit for private communication with the new transport. All future communication uses that private conduit.

The request socket is now free for additional requests from other client transports.
