.SH NAME
|
||||||
|
tinc \- tinc VPN daemon

.B tincd

[\fIoption\fR]...
|
||||||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||||
|
.PP
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is the daemon of tinc, a secure virtual private
|
||||||
|
network (VPN) project. When started, tincd will read
|
||||||
|
it's configuration file to determine what virtual subnet
|
||||||
|
it has to serve and to what other tinc daemons it should connect.
|
||||||
|
It will connect to the ethertap device and set up a socket for incomming
|
||||||
|
connections.
|
||||||
|
If that succeeds, it will detach from the controlling terminal and
|
||||||
|
continue in the background, accepting and setting up connections to other
|
||||||
|
tinc daemons that are part of the virtual private network.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.SH OPTIONS
|

|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
\fBALRM\fR
|
||||||
|
Forces tincd to try to connect to an uplink immediately. Usually tincd attempts
|
||||||
|
to do this itself, but increases the time it waits between the attempts each time
|
||||||
|
it failed, and if tincd didn't succeed to connect to an uplink the first time after
|
||||||
|
it started, it defaults to the maximum time of 15 minutes.
|
||||||
|
.PP
|
||||||
|
.SH "DEBUG LEVELS"
|
||||||
|
The tinc daemon can send a lot of messages to the syslog. The more \fB\-d\fR options are
|
||||||
|
given to tincd, the more messages it will log. Each level inherits all messages of the
|
||||||
|
previous level:
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
\fIno debug options\fR
|
||||||
|
This will log a message indicating tincd has started along with a version number.
|
||||||
|
It will also any serious error.
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
\fB\-d\fR
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
\fB\-d \-d\fR

||||||
|

.PP
|
||||||
|
.SH "BUGS"
|
||||||
|
Maintaining a connection list on each tinc daemon that can connect and disconnect at any
|
||||||
|
moment, and making sure that all connections satisfy the tree property isn't easy. Although
|
||||||
|
we have done a lot to make sure tinc is sturdy and foolproof, it might happen that
|
||||||
|
some connection lists get corrupted.
|
||||||
|
.PP
|
||||||
|
If you find any bugs, report them to tinc@nl.linux.org.
|
||||||
|
.PP
|
||||||
|
.SH "TODO"
|
||||||
|
A lot. If something you would like to see is not implemented, just ask; we most certainly will.
