SPIPED(1)spiped README SPIPED(1)NAMEspiped - secure pipe daemon
SYNOPSISspiped {-e | -d} -s <source socket> -t <target socket> -k <key file>
[-DFj] [-f | -g] [-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 unen‐
crypted 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: /abso‐
lute/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.
-g Require perfect forward secrecy by dropping connections if the
other host is using the -f option.
-F Run in foreground. This can be useful with systems like daemon‐
tools.
-j Disable transport layer keep-alives. (By default they are
enabled.)
-n <max # connections>
Limit on the number of simultaneous connections allowed. This
value must be between 1 and 500. 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 connec‐
tion 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.
