Transit Relay server for Magic-Wormhole

Use rlimit() to allow the server to have more than 1024 simultaneous open file descriptors. That would limit us to about 510 connections. The new limit varies depending on the operating system, but is closer to a million. closes #2 |

Transit Relay server for Magic-Wormhole
This repository implements the Magic-Wormhole "Transit Relay", a server that helps clients establish bulk-data transit connections even when both are behind NAT boxes. Each side makes a TCP connection to this server and presents a handshake. Two connections with identical handshakes are glued together, allowing them to pretend they have a direct connection.
This server used to be included in the magic-wormhole repository, but was split out into a separate repo to aid deployment and development.
See docs/running.md for instructions to launch the server.
