LATD(8)			    System Manager's Manual		       LATD(8)

NAME
       latd - LAT daemon

SYNOPSIS
       latd [options]
       Options:
       [-dvVht]	 [-i  interface] [-g greeting] [-s service] [-c	circuit-timer]
       [-r rating]

DESCRIPTION
       latd is a daemon	that serves incoming  and  outgoing  LAT  (Local  Area
       Transport) requests.
       The  parameters for LATD	are just defaults, they	can all	be changed us-
       ing latcp(8).

       latd should not be started directly but should  be  invoked  using  the
       command	latcp -s.  Any arguments for latd can be added to the latcp -s
       command line and	many can be set	in /etc/latd.conf(5).

   OPTIONS
       -i     Set the interface	to be used for LAT communication. If  this  is
	      not  specified  then  all	ethernet interfaces will be used. This
	      option can be specified multiple times to	enable several	inter-
	      faces. eg:
	      -i  eth0 -i eth2 Note, only Linux	can use	more than one ethernet
	      interface	at a time. *BSD	versions will use the first  available
	      ethernet adaptor unless it is overridden by -i.

       -g     Sets the greeting	for this node.

       -s     Set  the	default	service	name for this node. The	default	is the
	      node name.

       -c     Sets the circuit timer. The default is 80	(ms);

       -r     Sets the rating for the default service. If the -t switch	is not
	      present this rating will be the maximum rating for the  service.
	      The  load	average	of the machine will be used to recalculate the
	      rating each time the servuce is announced. This allows  terminal
	      servers to do load balancing.

       -t     Makes  the  rating static. It will not change as the system load
	      changes.

       -d     Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.

       -v     Verbose. The more	of these there are the more verbose latd  will
	      be. Don't	use more than one for normal operation because it will
	      seriously	impair performance.

       -h -?  Displays help for	using the command.

       -V     Show the version of latd.
