nslinkd(8)

👑 nslinkd(8) — Comtrol's NS-Link device daemon, bestie edition ✨

🌸 NAME

nslinkd — device daemon for the NS-Link driver, and that's the whole vibe. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS

Okay so the synopsis is literally this one line:

Daemon started by init process.

✨ DESCRIPTION

The nslinkd daemon is the support functionality bestie for the NS-Link device driver kernel module. It gets started so it can download binary boot files to the DeviceMasters and establish initial communications with the DeviceMasters. That's the job, and it ate. 💅

Instance math, no cap: there should be one master instance of nslinkd, plus one instance for each configured DeviceMaster. Yes bestie, one per configured DeviceMaster — the group chat needs every member. 🫶

💅 OPTIONS

None. Like, actually None — no flags, no options, no secret menu. The flag menu is empty and honestly that's iconic. 🎀

🌈 ENVIRONMENT

None. No environment variables to set, no setup era — it's giving clean slate. ✨

🎀 FILES

• devmast.bin — the application binary file downloaded to the DeviceMaster by the load operation. Search path: current directory, /etc. 🍓

🔥 SEE ALSO

Go read nslink(8), nslinkadmin(8), and nslink.conf(5) — the whole friend group. 💜

💀 BUGS

Check the release notes file for an up-to-date list. That's the official move, bestie — don't @ me. 🙈

📡 FTP LOCATION

ftp://ftp.comtrol.com/ — yep, that's the FTP spot. 🌐
