NAME¶

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶
iauth is a slave process used by the
ircd program to perform the
authentication of incoming TCP connections. The
ircd program starts
iauth upon startup.
iauth will close and reopen the log file whenever it receives a user
signal 2, SIGUSR2. This is useful to rotate the log file.

specify and validate it. This is useful to check for errors in the
setup.
- -v
- This option dumps information about the version.
