OPTIONS
-a|--crash-dump
write oscam.crash on segfault (needs installed GDB and OSCam com‐
piled with debug infos -ggdb)
-b|--daemon
starts in background, writing oscam.version with starttime and ver‐
sion info in temporary directory
-B|--pidfile <filename>
set PID file, overrides pidfile of oscam.conf, default:none
-c|--config-dir <directory>

-d|--debug <level>
debug level mask:
0 = no debugging (default)
2 = ATR parsing info, ECM dumps, CW dumps
4 = traffic from/to the reader
8 = traffic from/to the clients
16 = traffic to the reader-device on IFD layer
32 = traffic to the reader-device on I/O layer
64 = EMM logging
128 = DVBAPI logging
256 = load balancing logging
512 = cache exchange logging
1024 = client ECM logging
2048 = CSP logging
4096 = CWC logging
65535 = debug all
-g|--gcollect <mode>
garbage collector debug mode, default:none:
1 = immediate free
2 = check for double frees
-h|--help
usage
-I|--syslog-ident <ident>
set syslog ident, default:oscam
-p|--pending-ecm <number>
maximum number of pending ECM packets, default:32, maximum:255
-r|--restart <level>
restart level:
0 = disabled, restart request sets exit status to 99
1 = restart activated, web interface can restart oscam (default)
2 = like 1, but also restart on segmentation faults
-S|--show-sensitive
do not filter sensitive info (card serial numbers) in the logs
-s|--capture-segfaults
capture segmentation faults
-t|--temp-dir <directory>
use <directory> for temporary data, default:temporary directory of
OS
-u|--utf8
enable output of web interface in UTF-8 charset
-V|--build-info
show OSCam version info
-w|--wait <seconds>
time waiting for system time to be set correctly
SIGNALS
SIGHUP
reinit user db, readers, TIERs, services, clients and anti-cascad‐
ing, for newcamd connections: after reloading the ident, please
restart newcamd client
SIGUSR1
shift debug level to next level (see debug level mask above)
SIGUSR2
get reader SC info
