Socket activation on FreeBSD

Hi,

A nice feature of systemd is "socket activation". When connecting to a listening socket, the system can start a service or a daemon.
I'm pretty new on FreeBSD. How can I create such a listening socket on FreeBSD?

Thanks in advance!

It's a specific feature of systemd. As FreeBSD doesn't have systemd you can't use any of those features.
 
Adding inetd(8) to the list of things systemd reinvented for no reason at all. ?

(yes, I know inetd doesn't start daemons but just simple stdio programs. still the same basic idea. only the daemon will keep running, so, why??)
