πŸ’– PROXY_KNUTH_B πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is a User Command, section 1 of the manual β€” it's proxy_knuth_b, a server, and the copyright situation is literally right there in the name section: (C) 2009-2015 by folkert@vanheusden.com 🫢. That's the whole vibe, let's get into it.


✨ NAME ✨

proxy_knuth_b β€” server for proxy_knuth_b, (C) 2009-2015 by folkert@vanheusden.com

like yes, the server is for itself, it's giving self-made main character energy and honestly? we respect it πŸ‘‘


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The whole usage is literally just this, no notes:

proxy_knuth_b <options>

that's it. that's the sentence. she's a server and she takes options πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -I host β€” the entropy_broker host to connect to. e.g. host, or host:port, or an [ipv6 literal]:port situation β€” and listen, you can have multiple entries of this one, stack 'em up bestie πŸ¦‹
  • -j adapter β€” the adapter to listen on
  • -p port β€” the port to listen on (default: 12347)
  • -l file β€” log to file file
  • -L x β€” log level, where 0 = nothing, 255 = all of it, every last crumb πŸ‘€
  • -s β€” log to syslog
  • -n β€” do not fork
  • -V file β€” store buffers to this file (default: /var/cache/lookup.knuthb)
  • -P file β€” write pid to file
  • -X file β€” read username+password from file (to authenticate to broker)
  • -U file β€” read u/p for clients from file (to authenticate local clients)
lowkey a lot of files in here, no cap β€” -l, -V, -P, -X and -U all want their own lil path, so don't mix them up bestie 😭
