NAME
       conmand - ConMan daemon

SYNOPSIS
       conmand [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION
       conmand	is the daemon responsible for managing consoles defined by its
       configuration file as well as listening for connections from clients.

OPTIONS
       -c file
	      Specify a configuration file, overriding	the  default  location
	      [/etc/conman.conf].

       -h     Display a summary of the command-line options.

       -k     Send a SIGTERM to the conmand process associated with the speci‐
	      fied configuration, thereby killing the daemon.	Returns	 0  if
	      the daemon was successfully signaled; otherwise, returns 1.

       -L     Display license information.

       -p port
	      Specify the port on which conmand will listen for clients, over‐
	      riding both the default port [7890] and the  port	 specified  in
	      the configuration file.

       -q     Displays	the  PID  of  the  conmand process associated with the
	      specified configuration if it appears active.  Returns 0 if  the
	      configuration appears active; otherwise, returns 1.

       -r     Send  a SIGHUP to the conmand process associated with the speci‐
	      fied configuration, thereby re-opening both  that	 daemon's  log
	      file  and individual console log files.  Returns 0 if the daemon
	      was successfully signaled; otherwise, returns 1.

       -v     Enable verbose mode.

       -V     Display version information.

       -z     Truncate both the daemon's log file and individual  console  log
	      files at start-up.

SIGNALS
       SIGHUP	   Close  and re-open both the daemon's log file and the indi‐
		   vidual console log  files.	Conversion  specifiers	within
		   filenames  will be re-evaluated.  This is useful for logro‐
		   tate configurations.

       SIGTERM	   Terminate the daemon.

SECURITY
       The client/server communications are not yet encrypted.

NOTES
       Log messages are sent to standard-error until after  the	 configuration
       file  has been read, at which time future messages are discarded unless
       either the logfile or syslog  keyword  has  been	 specified  (cf,  con‐
       man.conf(5)).

       If the configuration file is modified while the daemon is running and a
       pidfile was not originally specified, the '-k' and '-r' options may  be
       unable  to  identify  the daemon process; consequently, the appropriate
       signal may need to be sent to the daemon manually.
