✨ afpfsd(1) — the daemon 🧚

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for afpfsd, which is the manual name, and it is giving background helper energy 💅

✨ NAME ✨

afpfsd — daemon to manage AFP sessions for the afpfs-ng FUSE client 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

afpfsd [-l|logmethod=method [f|--foreground [d|--debug

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so afpfsd is a daemon that manages AFP sessions, and it is literally the main character behind the scenes 👑 you do the fun stuff like mounting and checking status through the afp_client(1) tool, and that client chats with the daemon over a named pipe 🎀 no cap, it's a whole thing.

heads up though, afpfsd will not start if another instance is already running 🙈 there needs to be exactly one copy running per user. one daemon per user, periodt 💖

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -l, --logmethod — sets the method used to log 📝 the values are stdout or syslog 🌸
  • -f, --foreground — doesn't fork the daemon, so it stays put in the foreground ✨
  • -f, --debug — puts the daemon in the foreground and dumps logs to stdout 🔥 (yes, -f shows up twice in the original, and yes, that's the official vibe 💀)

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

afp_client(1), mount_afp(1) 🫶
