anytun-controld(8)
==================

NAME
----
anytun-controld - anycast tunneling control daemon

SYNOPSIS
--------

*anytun-controld*
[ *-h|--help* ]
[ *-f|--file* <path> ]
[ *-X|--control-host* <host:port> ]
[ *-D|--nodaemonize* ]
[ *-C|--chroot* ]
[ *-u|--username* <username> ]
[ *-H|--chroot-dir* <path> ]
[ *-P|--write-pid* <path> ]

DESCRIPTION
-----------

*anytun-controld* provides 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
-------

-f|--file <path>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

path to config file

-X|--control-host <host>:<port>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

local ip address and tcp port to bind to

-D|--nodaemonize
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This option instructs *anytun-controld* to run in the foreground
instead of becoming a daemon.

-C|--chroot
~~~~~~~~~~~

chroot and drop privileges

-u|--username <username>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

if chroot change to this user

-H|--chroot-dir <directory>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-P|--write-pid <path>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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.
