NAME

       spipe - spiped client utility

SYNOPSIS

       spipe -t <target socket> -k <key file> [-f | -g] [-j] [-o <connection timeout>]
       spiped -v

OPTIONS

       -t <target socket>
              Address to which spipe should connect.  Must be in one of the following formats:

       •      /absolute/path/to/unix/socket

       •      host.name:port

       •      [ip.v4.ad.dr]:port

       •      [ipv6::addr]:port

       -k <key file>
              Use  the  provided  key  file  to authenticate and encrypt.  Pass "-" to read from standard input.
              Note that reading the key via standard input will make it impossible to  read  anything  else  via
              standard input, thereby limiting spipe to receiving data but not sending any.

       -f     Use  fast/weak  handshaking:  This  reduces  the CPU time spent in the initial connection setup by
              disabling the Diffie-Hellman handshake, at the expense of losing perfect forward secrecy.

       -g     Require perfect forward secrecy by dropping connections if the other host is using the -f option.

       -j     Disable transport layer keep-alives.  (By default they are enabled.)

       -o <connection timeout>
              Timeout, in seconds, after which an attempt to connect to the target or a protocol handshake  will
              be aborted (and the connection dropped) if not completed.  Defaults to 5s.

       -v     Print version number.
