+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+Invoked by other LON-CAPA modules.
+
+ &Apache::lonnet::SUBROUTINENAME(ARGUMENTS);
+
+=head1 INTRODUCTION
+
+This module provides subroutines which interact with the
+lonc/lond (TCP) network layer of LON-CAPA.
+
+This is part of the LearningOnline Network with CAPA project
+described at http://www.lon-capa.org.
+
+=head1 HANDLER SUBROUTINE
+
+There is no handler routine for this module.
