[vdr] multiplex (was "How to kill an svdrp connection from vdr ?")

[Gregoire Favre <Gregoire.Favre@freesurf.ch>]

Hello,

my friend Olivier Dormond, yes the one who added SVDRP to xawtv (with
new email olivier.dormond@gmail.com ) has tried to make a multiplexer.

The first one http://magma.epfl.ch/greg/linux/multiplex.c don't really
works, but maybe someone could use anything from it...

The second one http://magma.epfl.ch/greg/linux/multiplexer.py need
python, which is too much for some VDR users, but it's just right for
me...

Now a little proclamation: DON'T USE THOSE !!!
There's no test of any kind regarding timer or anything else...
All it done is to multiplex a SVDRP port. (and close connections that
want to be closed).
It's also not very well tested...
It's also a security problem (like always with SVDRP)...

For example, just imagine you run VDR like this :
vdr --port=1234
then with the command :
multiplexer.py 1234 2001

You can access VDR over SVDRP port 2001 with xawtv, and in the same time
with svdrpsend.pl, and with vdradmin, ...
