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.

hostname        WO      /tmp/image

FILES

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

Never use `sed' when `tr' can do the job;
Never invoke `tr' when `cat' is sufficient;
Avoid using `cat' whenever possible. 		”
