11 zhm \- Zephyr HostManager
30 is the link between a client machine and the zephyr server. All
31 notices sent from programs on the client are funneled through
33 This allows all client programs to be much simpler in function, since
34 the HostManager is responsible for handling errors, retransmitting
35 lost notices, and holding all notices until they are acknowledged.
39 option turns on debugging mode, and sends its information to syslog
46 to send a shutdown message and exit upon delivery of a SIGHUP signal.
47 The normal action on SIGHUP is to send a flush notice to the zephyr server.
53 to send a boot notice to the server and exit when the notice is acknowledged.
61 When this option is specified,
63 assumes that file descriptor zero (0) is bound to the UDP datagram port
64 designated for hostmanager use. In this mode, SIGHUP is handled as if the
66 option were specified.
70 option disables the "flush" operation which allows any client to flush
71 all subscriptions for the host.
75 arguments are used to replace the set of server names supplied by
80 zephyr(1), zephyrd(8), inetd(8)
