ez-ipupdate - dynamic DNS client SYNOPSIS
ez-ipupdate [options] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the ez-ipupdate dynamic DNS client. OPTIONS
ez-ipupdate follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). -a, --address <ip address> string to send as your ip address -b, --cache-file <file> file to use for caching the ipaddress -c, --config-file <file> configuration file, almost all arguments can be given with: <name>[=<value>] to see a list of possible config commands try "echo help | ez-ipupdate -c -" -d, --daemon run as a daemon periodicly updating if necessary -e, --execute <command> shell command to execute after a successful update -f, --foreground when running as a daemon run in the foreground -F, --pidfile <file> use <file> as a pid file -g, --request-uri <uri> URI to send updates to -h, --host <host> string to send as host parameter -i, --interface <iface> which interface to use -L, --cloak_title <host> some stupid thing for DHS only -m, --mx <mail exchange> string to send as your mail exchange -M, --max-interval <# of sec> max time in between updates -N, --notify-email <email> address to send mail to if bad things happen -o, --offline set to off line mode -p, --resolv-period <sec> period to check IP if it can't be resolved -P, --period <# of sec> period to check IP in daemon mode (default: 1800 seconds) -q, --quiet be quiet -r, --retrys <num> number of trys (default: 1) -R, --run-as-user <user> change to <user> for running, be ware that this can cause problems with handeling SIGHUP properly if that user can't read the config file. also it can't write it's pid file to a root directory -Q, --run-as-euser <user> change to effective <user> for running, this is NOT secure but it does solve the problems with run-as-user and config files and pid files. -s, --server <server[:port]> the server to connect to -S, --service-type <server> the type of service that you are using try one of: null ezip pgpow dhs dyndns dyndns-static dyndns-custom ods tzo easydns easydns- partner gnudip justlinux dyns hn zoneedit heipv6tb -t, --timeout <sec.millisec> the amount of time to wait on I/O -T, --connection-type <num> number sent to TZO as your connection type (default: 1) -U, --url <url> string to send as the url parameter -u, --user <user[:passwd]> user ID and password, if either is left blank they will be prompted for -w, --wildcard set your domain to have a wildcard alias -z, --partner <partner> specify easyDNS partner (for easydns-partner services) --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit --credits print the credits and exit --signalhelp print help about signals AUTHOR

proftpd(8) System Manager's Manual proftpd(8) NAME
proftpd - Professional configurable, secure file transfer protocol server SYNOPSIS
proftpd [ -hlntv ] [ -c config-file ] [ -d debuglevel ] [ -p 0|1 ] DESCRIPTION
proftpd is the Professional File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server daemon. The server may be invoked by the Internet "super-server" inetd(8) each time a connection to the FTP service is made, or alternatively it can be run as a standalone daemon. When proftpd is run in standalone mode and it receives a SIGHUP then it will reread its configuration file. When run in standalone mode without the -n option, the main proftpd daemon writes its process ID to /var/run/proftpd.pid to make it easy to know which process to SIGHUP. OPTIONS
-h,--help Display a short usage description, including all available options. -n,--nodaemon Runs the proftpd process in standalone mode (must be configured as such in the configuration file), but does not background the process or disassociate it from the controlling tty. Additionally, all output (log or debug messages) are sent to stderr, rather than the syslog mechanism. Most often used with the -d option for debugging. -q,--quiet Quiet mode; don't send logging information to standard error when running with the -n option. -v,--version Displays the version number of ProFTPD to stdout. -D,--define parameter Sets a configuration parameter which can be used <IfDefine>...</IfDefine> sections in the configuration files to conditionally skip or process commands. -d,--debug debuglevel Sets proftpd's internal debug level (normally 0). The debuglevel should be an integer value from 0 to 10, with higher numbers producing more debug output. Normally, debug messages are sent to syslog using the DEBUG facility, however if the -n option is used, all such output is sent to stderr. -c,--config config-file Specifies an alternate config-file to be parsed at startup, rather than the default configuration file. The default configura- tion file is /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf -N,--nocollision Disables address/port collision checking. -V,--settings Displays various compile-time settings and exits. -S,--serveraddr Specifies an IP address for the host machine, avoiding an DNS lookup of the hostname -t,--configtest Read the configuration file, report any syntax errors, and exit. -p,--persistent 0|1 Disables (0) or enables (1) the default persistent password support, which is determined at configure time for each platform. This option only affects the default support, it can still be overridden at run-time with the PersistentPasswd directive. -l,--list Lists all modules compiled into proftpd. -4,--ipv4 Support IPv4 functionality only, regardless of whether the --enable-ipv6 configure option was used. -6,--ipv6 Support IPv6 connections and lookup of IPv6 addresses for server DNS names. This is enabled by default, if the --enable-ipv6 configure option is used. FILES
