+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+*anytun-controld* configures the multi-connection support for *Anytun*. It reads a connection/routing table and outputs it via a tcp socket to all connected *Anytun* servers. When the control daemon is restarted with a new connection/routing table all *Anytun* servers automatically load the new configuration. Please make sure to protect that information as it contains the connection keys.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+*-D, --nodaemonize*::
+ This option instructs *anytun-controld* to run in foreground
+ instead of becoming a daemon which is the default.
+
+*-u, --username <username>*::
+ run as this user. If no group is specified (*-g*) the default group of
+ the user is used. The default is to not drop privileges.
+
+*-g, --groupname <groupname>*::
+ run as this group. If no username is specified (*-u*) this gets ignored.
+ The default is to not drop privileges.
+
+*-C, --chroot <path>*::
+ Instruct *anytun-controld* to run in a chroot jail. The default is
+ to not run in chroot.
+
+*-P, --write-pid <filename>*::
+ Instruct *anytun-controld* to write it's pid to this file. The default is
+ to not create a pid file.
+
+*-L, --log <target>:<level>[,<param1>[,<param2>[..]]]*::
+ add log target to logging system. This can be invoked several times
+ in order to log to different targets at the same time. Every target
+ hast its own log level which is a number between 0 and 5. Where 0 means
+ disabling log and 5 means debug messages are enabled. +
+ The file target can be used more the once with different levels.
+ If no target is provided at the command line a single target with the
+ config *syslog:3,anytun-controld,daemon* is added. +
+ The following targets are supported:
+
+ *syslog*;; log to syslog daemon, parameters <level>[,<logname>[,<facility>]]
+ *file*;; log to file, parameters <level>[,<path>]
+ *stdout*;; log to standard output, parameters <level>
+ *stderr*;; log to standard error, parameters <level>
+
+*-f, --file <path>*::
+ The path to the file which holds the sync information.
+
+*-X, --control-host <hostname|ip>[:<port>]*::
+ fetch the config from this host. The default is not to use a control
+ host and therefore this is empty. Mind that the port can be omitted
+ in which case port 2323 is used. If you want to specify an
+ ipv6 address and a port you have to use [ and ] to seperate the address
+ from the port, eg.: [::1]:1234. If you want to use the default port
+ [ and ] can be omitted.
+
+
+BUGS
+----
+Most likely there are some bugs in *Anytun*. If you find a bug, please let
+the developers know at satp@anytun.org. Of course, patches are preferred.
