NAME
       iauth - The Internet Relay Chat Authentication Program

SYNOPSIS
       iauth  [ -v | -c configfile ]

DESCRIPTION
       iauth is a slave process used by the ircd program to perform the authentication of incoming TCP connections.  The ircd program starts iauth
       upon startup.

       iauth will close and reopen the log file whenever it receives a user signal 2, SIGUSR2.	This is useful to rotate the log file.

OPTIONS
       -c filename
	      When this flag is given, the program will read the configuration file specify and validate it.  This is useful to check  for  errors
	      in the setup.

       -v     This option dumps information about the version.

EXAMPLE
	      millennium% iauth -c iauth.conf
	      iauth 2.10

	      Reading "iauth.conf"
