NAME

     notifyd -- notification server

SYNOPSIS

     notifyd [-d] [-log_file path] [-shm_pages npages]

DESCRIPTION

     notifyd is the server for the Mac OS X notification system described in notify(3).  The server is started automatically by launchd during
     system startup.

     The -d option causes notifyd to log debugging messages to a log file.  Messages are not logged to ASL to avoid potential deadlocks, since the
     ASL system makes use of the notify(3) system.

     The default log file is /var/log/notifyd.log.  An alternate log file path may be specified following the -log_file flag.

     The -shm_pages npages option sets the number of shared memory pages used for passive notification.  The default is one page.  If a value of
     zero is specified, shared memory is disabled and passive notifications are performed using IPC between the client and the server.

NAME

       notifyd - Cyrus notification server

SYNOPSIS

       notifyd [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ]
	       [ -D ]

DESCRIPTION

       Notifyd	is a daemon started from master(8) that handles notification requests on behalf of lmtpd(8).  Notifyd accepts the request and per-
       forms the notification using the method specified in the request.

       Note that for notifyd to run properly you must set proto=udp in its cyrus.conf services entry.  prefork=1 is also recommended.

       Notifyd reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.	The notifysocket option is used to
       specify the Unix domain socket to listen on for notifications.

OPTIONS

       -C config-file
	      Read configuration options from config-file.

       -U uses
	      The maximum number of times that the process should be used for new connections before shutting down.  The default is 250.

       -T timeout
	      The number of seconds that the process will wait for a new connection before shutting down.  Note that a value of 0 (zero) will dis-
	      able the timeout.  The default is 60.

       -D     Run external debugger specified in debug_command.

NOTIFICATION METHODS
