NAME

       spiped - secure pipe daemon

SYNOPSIS

       spiped {-e | -d} -s <source socket> -t <target socket> -k <key file>
       [-DfFj]  [-n  <max # connections>] [-o <connection timeout>] [-p <pidfile>] [{-r <rtime> |
       -R}]

OPTIONS

       -e     Take unencrypted connections from the source socket and send encrypted  connections
              to the target socket.

       -d     Take  encrypted connections from the source socket and send unencrypted connections
              to the target socket.

       -s <source socket>
              Address on which spiped should listen for incoming connections.  Must be in one  of
              the     following     formats:     /absolute/path/to/unix/socket     host.name:port
              [ip.v4.ad.dr]:port [ipv6::addr]:port Note that hostnames are resolved  when  spiped
              is  launched  and are not re-resolved later; thus if DNS entries change spiped will
              continue to connect to the expired address.

       -t <target socket>
              Address to which spiped should connect.

       -k <key file>
              Use the provided key file to authenticate and encrypt.

       -D     Wait for DNS.  Normally when spiped is launched it resolves addresses and binds  to
              its  source  socket  before  the  parent  process returns; with this option it will
              daemonize first and retry failed DNS  lookups  until  they  succeed.   This  allows
              spiped  to  launch  even  if DNS isn't set up yet, but at the expense of losing the
              guarantee that once spiped has finished launching it will be ready to create pipes.

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

       -F     Run in foreground.  This can be useful with systems like daemontools.

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

       -n <max # connections>
              Limit  on  the  number  of  simultaneous  connections  allowed.   Defaults  to  100
              connections.

       -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.

       -p <pidfile>
              File to  which  spiped's  process  ID  should  be  written.   Defaults  to  <source
              socket>.pid (in the current directory if <source socket> is not an absolute path).

       -r <rtime>
              Re-resolve  the  address of <target socket> every <rtime> seconds.  Defaults to re-
              resolution every 60 seconds.

       -R     Disable target address re-resolution.
