NAME

       afclient.conf - Configuration File for afclient

INTRODUCTION

       Afclient  supports  several  mechanisms  to  supply  configuration  and run-time parameters: command line
       options, afclient.conf and hard-coded defaults. When the same information is supplied in  more  than  one
       way,  the highest precedence mechanism is used. When configuration file is used (option: -f FILE) command
       line options like --reverseudp, --udpmode, --remoteadmin, --load, --Load and --pass are ignored.  Options
       from  configuration  file  are  taken  before  values from command line (with the exception of --keyfile,
       --storefile, --dateformat, --ignorepkeys and the options connected with  http  proxy  and  auto-reconnect
       support). When something is not declared, hard-coded values are used.

DESCRIPTION

       Afclient uses configuration file, which name is supplied by the -f FILE option. The afclient.conf file is
       the set of command-line like options, which can be written in any order.

OPTIONS

       servername NAME
         name of the host, where afserver is running

         the name of this host/remote host - the final destination of the packets (default: the name returned by
       hostname function)

       portnum PORT
         the port we are forwarding connection to

       localname NAME
         local machine name for connection with afserver (used to bind socket to different interfaces)

       localport NAME
         local port name for connection with afserver (used to bind socket to different addressees)

       localdesname NAME
         local  machine  name  for  connections  with  destination application (used to bind socket to different
       interfaces)

       id STRING
         sends the id string to afserver

       pass PASSWORD
         set the password used for client identification (default: no password)

       ignorepkeys
         ignore invalid server's public keys

       keyfile FILE
         the name of the file with RSA key (default: client.rsa)

       cerfile FILE
         the name of the file with certificate (default: no certificate used)

       storefile FILE
         the name of the file with stored public keys (default: known_hosts)

       dateformat FORMAT
         format of the date printed in logs (see 'man  strftime'  for  details)  (default:  %d.%m.%Y  %H:%M:%S).
       Format  string  is  trimmed.  In  order  to include white characters into format string, use dots to mark
       beginning and end of the text. If the dot is first or last character, it's removed.  Only  one  character
       from the beginning and one from the end can be removed.

       keep-alive N
         send keepalive packets every N seconds (default: not send keepalive packets)

       ar-start
         enable auto-reconnection when afserver is not reachable on start (default: disabled)

       ar-quit
         enable auto-reconnection after normal afserver quit (default: disabled)

       noar
         disable auto-reconnection after premature afserver quit (default: enabled)

       ar-delay N
         wait N seconds between reconnect tries (default: 5)

       reverseudp

       name:manageport
