BTW, I meant to mention that since any of these choices use a daemon
(unless you go with basic write?), be sure to consider your security
needs, if any. Consider using xinetd if the volume is low, be sure to
restrict port access from the Internet, configure host.{allow,deny}
properly so only desired local traffic is permitted for each machine,
etc. Check config files too, for a 1st/last line of defense. Some might
have some security configuration capability included in them.
