ggated
GEOM Gate network daemon

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

The ggated utility is a network server for the 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 connections between ggatec(8) and ggated are not encrypted.

Available options:

address
Specifies an IP address to bind to.
Print available options.
Do not use TCP_NODELAY option on TCP sockets.
port
Port on which ggated listens for connections. Default is 3080.
pidfile
PID file that ggated uses.
rcvbuf
Size of receive buffer to use. Default is 131072 (128kB).
sndbuf
Size of send buffer to use. Default is 131072 (128kB).
Do not fork, run in foreground and print debug information 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/cd0
1.2.3.0/24	RW	/tmp/test.img
hostname	WO	/tmp/image

/var/run/ggated.pid
The default location of the ggated PID file.

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.

Export CD-ROM device and a file:
# echo "1.2.3.0/24 RO /dev/cd0" > /etc/gg.exports
# echo "client RW /image" >> /etc/gg.exports
# ggated

geom(4), ggatec(8), ggatel(8)

The ggated utility appeared in FreeBSD 5.3.

The ggated utility as well as this manual page was written by Pawel Jakub Dawidek <pjd@FreeBSD.org>.
