NAME
       spipe - spiped client utility

SYNOPSIS
       spipe  -t  <target  socket> -k <key file> [-b <bind address>] [-f | -g]
       [-j] [-o	<connection timeout>]
       spiped -v

OPTIONS
       -t <target socket>
	      Address to which spipe should connect.  Must be in  one  of  the
	      following	formats:

             /absolute/path/to/unix/socket

             host.name:port

             [ip.v4.ad.dr]:port

             [ipv6::addr]:port

       -k <key file>
	      Use the provided key file	to authenticate	and encrypt.  Pass "-"
	      to  read	from  standard	input.	 Note that reading the key via
	      standard input will make it impossible to	read anything else via
	      standard input, thereby limiting spipe to	receiving data but not
	      sending any.

       -b <bind	address>
	      Bind the outgoing	address.  If this is a	network	 address,  the
	      port  number  may	 either	 be specified or left to the operating
	      system.  If you specify the port number,	the  operating	system
	      will  not	permit you to open a second connection until the first
	      one has completely expired (i.e. the TCP state is	no  longer  in
	      the TIME-WAIT state).

       -f     Use  fast/weak  handshaking:  This reduces the CPU time spent in
	      the initial connection setup  by	disabling  the	Diffie-Hellman
	      handshake, at the	expense	of losing perfect forward secrecy.

       -g     Require  perfect	forward	secrecy	by dropping connections	if the
	      other host is using the -f option.

       -j     Disable transport	layer keep-alives.  (By	default	they  are  en-
	      abled.)

       -o <connection timeout>
	      Timeout,	in  seconds,  after which an attempt to	connect	to the
	      target or	a protocol handshake will be aborted (and the  connec-
	      tion dropped) if not completed.  Defaults	to 5s.

       -v     Print version number.
