no idea what you need to guess here!

well, that's why i also quoted the in the meantime working full
standalone udp service called with "binary listening-ip listening-port"
which should replaced by a systemd-activated binary

look at the "worker-loop" - i want "sockfd" practically handed over form
PID1

while(1)
{
 recvfrom(sockfd, (char *)buffer, MAXLINE, MSG_WAITALL, (struct
 sockaddr *) &cliaddr, &len);
}
