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

NAME
     cvsd - chroot wrapper to run `cvs pserver' more securely.

SYNOPSIS
     cvsd [options]

DESCRIPTION
     cvsd  is  a  wrapper  program  for  cvs  in  pserver mode. it will run `cvs
     pserver' under a special uid/gid in a chroot jail.

     cvsd is run as a daemon and is controlled through a configuration file (see
     cvsd.conf(5) ). It is relatively easy to configure and tools  are	provided
     for  easily  setting up a chroot jail (see cvsd-buildroot(8) ) and managing
     repositories (see cvsd-passwd(8) ).

     See the README for more information and details to setting up a chroot jail
     and repositories.

OPTIONS
     cvsd accepts the following options:

     -f, --config=FILE
	    Use FILE as configfile (default is /usr/local/etc/cvsd/cvsd.conf).

     -d, --debug
	    Enable debugging mode.  cvsd will not put itself in  the  background
	    and  sends verbose debugging info to stderr.  Otherwise cvsd handles
	    connections as usual.  This option is for debugging purposes only.

     --help
	    Display short help and exit.

     -V, --version
	    Output version information and exit.
