✨ ADSERVER(1) — the adserver manual, bestie 🎀

Okay so this is the manual page for adserver, the General Commands Manual entry, and it's giving address book server energy. 💅

🌸 NAME

Okay the name section is literally spelled ADSERVERR with an extra R in the original 🙈 (the manpage says ADSERVERR - Simple address book server), so I'm keeping it exactly like that. The tool itself is a simple address book server for allowing remote access. 🦋

🧚 SYNOPSIS

Here's the only way you call it:

adserver [options]

💜 DESCRIPTION

Okay so adserver is a simple address book server that lets people access your address book remotely. Main character energy, literally. ✨

🎀 OPTIONS

Bestie, these are all the flags. Every single one, no skipping! 🫶

  • --ab LOC — Serve the address book at the location you give it. 📒
  • --ro PWD — Use PASS as the read-only access password. Note the original says PASS in the description but the flag takes PWD, so that's the vibe. 🔐
  • --rw PWD — Use PASS as the read-write access password. Same deal here, PWD goes in the flag and PASS in the description. 🔑
  • --rp PORT — Use PORT as the receive port number. 📥
  • --sp PORT — Use PORT as the send port number. 📤
  • --sock PORT — Use PORT as the socket port number. Default is 5000 if you don't set it. 🧦
  • --conf CFILE — Read values for AddressBookLocation, ReadOnlyPassword, ReadWritePassword, SendPort, ReceivePort from CONFIGFILE (proplist dictionary). Values you pass on the command line override these. 🗂️

Bestie, this page was dated November 16, 2006 and the footer says ADSERVER(1), so it's a vintage manpage with main character energy. Periodt. 💅✨
