TSITEST(8)

πŸ’– TSITEST(8) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to tsitest from the System Manager's Manual section β€” it's a HylaFAX TSI access control list checking program, and yes she's giving very much "little tool, big job" energy πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

tsitest β€” the HylaFAX TSI access control list checking program πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

/usr/sbin/tsitest [ -q ] ACLfile

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like, tsitest is an interactive program for testing out the TSI access control list (ACL) that faxgetty(8) server processes use to screen incoming facsimile. no cap, that's literally her whole thing.

The ACLfile you drop on the command line is expected to contain TSI control expressions, exactly as described over in tsi(5). then you just type strings at the prompt, she checks them against the list, and tsitest prints out whether or not the string is an acceptable TSI. it's giving vibe check but for fax callers ✨

heads up bestie β€” tsitest reads the control list file only when it is initially started up. that means you gotta restart tsitest for it to recognize changes to ACLfile. she does not do live updates, she does not refresh, she committed to that snapshot the moment she woke up 😭

πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • -q β€” operate quietly; tsitest will print only whether an input string is accepted or rejected. minimal. restrained. she ate and left no crumbs πŸ“

sign-off time 🫢 this lil gem comes from the System Manager's Manual, dated March 3, 1995 β€” a whole legend before her time, and honestly? she still slays. go test those TSI strings, bestie, and remember: restart her if you change the file πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈπŸ’…πŸŒˆβ­
