Describe the 2 processes a daemon uses (listening and hears)?

"listening" for a request from a client, because they are programmed to respond whenever the server receives a request for the service provided by the daemon "hears" a request from a client, it exchanges appropriate messages with the client, as required by its protocol, and proceeds to send the requested data to the client in the proper format
