NAME

     ggated -- GEOM Gate network daemon

SYNOPSIS

     ggated [-h] [-n] [-v] [-a address] [-p port] [-R rcvbuf] [-S sndbuf] [exports file]

DESCRIPTION

     The ggated utility is a network server for GEOM Gate class.  It runs on a server machine to service GEOM Gate requests from workers placed on
     a client machine.	Keep in mind, that connection between ggatec(8) and ggated is not encrypted.

     Available options:

     -a address    Specifies an IP address to bind to.

     -h 	   Print available options.

     -n 	   Do not use TCP_NODELAY option on TCP sockets.

     -p port	   Port on which ggated listens for connection.  Default is 3080.

     -R rcvbuf	   Size of receive buffer to use.  Default is 131072 (128kB).

     -S sndbuf	   Size of send buffer to use.	Default is 131072 (128kB).

     -v 	   Do not fork, run in foreground and print debug informations on standard output.

     exports file  An alternate location for the exports file.

     The format of an exports file is as follows:

	   1.2.3.4	   RO	   /dev/acd0
	   1.2.3.0/24	   RW	   /tmp/test.img
	   hostname	   WO	   /tmp/image

EXIT STATUS

     Exit status is 0 on success, or 1 if the command fails.  To get details about the failure, ggated should be called with the -v option.

EXAMPLES

     Export CD-ROM device and a file:

	   # echo "1.2.3.0/24 RO /dev/acd0" > /etc/gg.exports
	   # echo "client RW /image" >> /etc/gg.exports
	   # ggated

GGATEL(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						 GGATEL(8)

NAME

     ggatel -- GEOM Gate local control utility

SYNOPSIS

     ggatel create [-v] [-o ro | wo | rw] [-s sectorsize] [-t timeout] [-u unit] path
     ggatel attach [-v] [-o ro | wo | rw] -u unit path
     ggatel destroy [-f] -u unit
     ggatel list [-v] [-u unit]

DESCRIPTION

     The ggatel utility is a local GEOM Gate class consumer.  It can be used as a replacement for md(4) devices or as a ``GEOMificator'' for non
     GEOM-aware devices, but it was mainly created as an example on how to use and how to communicate with the GEOM Gate kernel module.

     Available commands:

     create   Create a ggate provider related to the given regular file or device.

     attach   Attach a worker process to an existing ggate provider.

     destroy  Destroy the given ggate provider.

     list     List ggate providers.

     Available options:

     -f 	      Forcibly destroy ggate provider (cancels all pending requests).

     -o ro | wo | rw  Specify permission to use when opening the file or device: read-only (ro), write-only (wo), or read-write (rw).  Default is
		      rw.

     -s sectorsize    Sector size for ggate provider.  If not specified, it is taken from device, or set to 512 bytes for files.

     -t timeout       Number of seconds to wait before an I/O request will be canceled.  0 means no timeout.  Default is 30.

     -u unit	      Unit number to use.

     -v 	      Do not fork, run in foreground and print debug informations on standard output.

     path	      Path to a regular file or device.

EXIT STATUS

     Exit status is 0 on success, or 1 if the command fails.  To get details about the failure, ggatel should be called with the -v option.

EXAMPLES

     ``GEOMify'' the ``fd0'' device and use gbde(8) to encrypt data on a floppy.

	   ggatel create -u 5 /dev/fd0
	   gbde init /dev/ggate5
	   gbde attach ggate5
	   newfs /dev/ggate5.bde
	   mount /dev/ggate5.bde /secret
	   cp /private/foo /secret/
	   umount /secret
	   gbde detach ggate5
	   ggatel destroy -u 5
