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* 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* to run in a chroot jail. The default is
-to not run in chroot.
-
--P|--write-pid <filename>
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Instruct *anytun* 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 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>
-
-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
-following config is added:
-
-*syslog:3,uanytun,daemon*
-
--f|--file <path>
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The path to the file which holds the sync information.
-
--X|--control-host < <host>[:<port>] | :<port> >
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The local ip address and or tcp port to bind to. Mind that if an
-address is given the port can be omitted in which case port 2323
-is used. You can also specify to listen on an specific port but on
-all interfaces by omitting the address. 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. default: 127.0.0.1:2323

+
+*-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
