GNFSD (General Number Field Sieving Daemon)
GNFSD is an augmented sieving client that allows a GNFS process to interact with a task server over the net, rather than requiring task specification on the command line.
Other key features are automatic failure detection and restart via a watchdog timer, persistent configuration state, and a TCP/IP monitor interface at port 5453.
