IAUTH(8)               DragonFly System Manager's Manual              IAUTH(8)

NAME
       iauth - The Internet Relay Chat Authentication Program

SYNOPSIS
       iauth  [ -v | -c configfile ]

DESCRIPTION
       iauth is a slave process used by the ircd program to perform the
       authentication of incoming TCP connections.  The ircd program starts
       iauth upon startup.

       iauth will close and reopen the log file whenever it receives a user
       signal 2, SIGUSR2.  This is useful to rotate the log file.

OPTIONS
       -c filename
              When this flag is given, the program will read the configuration
              file specify and validate it.  This is useful to check for
              errors in the setup.

       -v     This option dumps information about the version.

EXAMPLE
              millennium% iauth -c iauth.conf
              iauth 2.10

              Reading "iauth.conf"
