40 \fBanytun\-controld\fR configures the multi\-connection support for \fBAnytun\fR\&. It reads a connection/routing table and outputs it via a tcp socket to all connected \fBAnytun\fR servers\&. When the control daemon is restarted with a new connection/routing table all \fBAnytun\fR servers automatically load the new configuration\&. Please make sure to protect that information as it contains the connection keys\&.

47 to run in foreground instead of becoming a daemon which is the default\&.
50 \fB\-u, \-\-username \fR\fB\fI<username>\fR\fR
52 run as this user\&. If no group is specified (\fB\-g\fR) the default group of the user is used\&. The default is to not drop privileges\&.
55 \fB\-g, \-\-groupname \fR\fB\fI<groupname>\fR\fR
57 run as this group\&. If no username is specified (\fB\-u\fR) this gets ignored\&. The default is to not drop privileges\&.
60 \fB\-C, \-\-chroot \fR\fB\fI<path>\fR\fR
63 \fBanytun\-controld\fR
64 to run in a chroot jail\&. The default is to not run in chroot\&.
67 \fB\-P, \-\-write\-pid \fR\fB\fI<filename>\fR\fR
70 \fBanytun\-controld\fR
71 to write it\(cqs pid to this file\&. The default is to not create a pid file\&.
74 \fB\-L, \-\-log \fR\fB\fI<target>:<level>[,<param1>[,<param2>[\&.\&.]]]\fR\fR
76 add log target to logging system\&. This can be invoked several times in order to log to different targets at the same time\&. Every target hast its own log level which is a number between 0 and 5\&. Where 0 means disabling log and 5 means debug messages are enabled\&.
78 The file target can be used more the once with different levels\&. If no target is provided at the command line a single target with the config
79 \fIsyslog:3,anytun\-controld,daemon\fR
82 The following targets are supported:
86 log to syslog daemon, parameters <level>[,<logname>[,<facility>]]
91 log to file, parameters <level>[,<path>]
96 log to standard output, parameters <level>
101 log to standard error, parameters <level>
107 This option instructs
109 to run in debug mode\&. It implicits
111 (don\(cqt daemonize) and adds a log target with the configuration
113 (logging with maximum level)\&. In future releases there might be additional output when this option is supplied\&.
116 \fB\-f, \-\-file \fR\fB\fI<path>\fR\fR
118 The path to the file which holds the sync information\&.
121 \fB\-X, \-\-control\-host \fR\fB\fI<hostname|ip>[:<port>]\fR\fR
123 fetch the config from this host\&. The default is not to use a control host and therefore this is empty\&. Mind that the port can be omitted in which case port 2323 is used\&. If you want to specify an ipv6 address and a port you have to use [ and ] to separate the address from the port, eg\&.: [::1]:1234\&. If you want to use the default port [ and ] can be omitted\&.
127 Most likely there are some bugs in \fBAnytun\fR\&. If you find a bug, please let the developers know at satp@anytun\&.org\&. Of course, patches are preferred\&.
