NAME
occtl - OpenConnect VPN server control tool
SYNOPSIS
occtl [´COMMAND´]
DESCRIPTION
This a control tool that can be used to send commands to ocserv. When called without any arguments the tool can be used interactively, where each command is entered on a command prompt; alternatively the tool can be called with the command specified as parameter. In the latter case the tool´s exit code will reflect the successful execution of the command.
OPTIONS
-s, --socket-file=FILE Specify the server´s occtl socket file. This option is only needed if you have multiple servers. -j, --json Output will be JSON formatted. This option can only be used with non-interactive output, e.g., ´occtl --json show users´. -n, --no-pager No pager will be used over output data. --debug Provide more verbose information in some commands. -h, --help Display usage information and exit. -v, --version Output version of program and exit.
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
This tool uses unix domain sockets to connect to ocserv.
EXAMPLES
The tool can be run interactively when run with no arguments. When arguments are given they are interpreted as commands. For example: $ occtl show users Any command line arguments to be used as options must precede the command (if any), as shown below. $ occtl --json show users
Exit status
0 Successful program execution. 1 The operation failed or the command syntax was not valid.
