DESCRIPTION

The ggated utility is a network server for the GEOM Gate class. It runs on a server machine to service GEOM Gate requests from workers placed on a client machine. Keep in mind, that connections between ggatec(8) and ggated are not encrypted.

Available options:
-a address Specifies an IP address to bind to.

-S sndbuf Size of send buffer to use. Default is 131072 (128kB).
-v Do not fork, run in foreground and print debug information on standard output.

The format of an exports file is as follows:

1.2.3.4         RO      /dev/cd0

hostname        WO      /tmp/image

FILES

/var/run/ggated.pid
  The default location of the ggated PID file.
