UPDATEDD-WRAPPER(1) User Commands UPDATEDD-WRAPPER(1)NAMEupdatedd-wrapper - config- and cachefile support for updatedd
SYNOPSISupdatedd-wrapper [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
Updatedd-wrapper is a perl program to execute updatedd. It uses a con‐
figuration file with c-like syntax and a cache file for ip addresses to
prevent that a update with the same address will be executed twice.
OPTIONS-c <path>
Use an alternative configuration file.
Defaults:
/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf
/usr/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf
/usr/local/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf
-f Force update of all records (do not check cached ip addresses).
-i <secs>
Wait n seconds after a failed update until a new attempt will be
tried.
-r <num>
Number of retries when an update failed. This is only for
updates that failed with return code 1 (warnings), for example
connection problems or not enough memory.
-s Print commands to stdout instead of executing updatedd. This
option may be used to check whether updatedd-wrapper reads the
configuration file correctly.
-t <path>
Usually /tmp/updatedd-wrapper-<uid>.cache will be used as cache-
file, but you can specify another one with this option.
-y Print update status of all accounts to syslog. The configura‐
tion in updatedd-wrapper.conf will be passed over.
--help Print help and exit.
--version
Print version information and exit.
