AREQUIPAD(8)

NAME
arequipad - Arequipa demon

SYNOPSIS
atmsigd [-b] [-d] [-l logfile] [-n]

DESCRIPTION
arequipad assists the kernel in managing Arequipa connections. It is required for any use of Arequipa. arequipad expects signaling to be available (i.e. atmsigd to run) at start time.

arequipad establishes a service access point (SAP) for incoming Arequipa connections, accepts them, and registers them with the Arequipa entity in the kernel. It also performs delayed close operations when Arequipa connections are detached from within an interrupt.

OPTIONS

-b  Run in background (i.e. in a forked child process) after initializing.

-d  Enables (lots of) debugging output. By default, arequipad is very quiet.

-l logfile
    Write diagnostic messages to the specified file instead of to standard error. The special name syslog is used to send diagnostics to the system logger.

-n  Prints addresses in numeric format only, i.e. no address to name translation is attempted.
