NAME
     whosond - whoson database daemon

SYNOPSYS
     whosond [-V] [-v] [-h] [-d] [-I configfile]

DESCRIPTION
     whosond command starts the daemon that maintains the in-memory database ac-
     cessible by the application programs via the whoson(3) API functions.

     Command options are:

     -V - print version information and exit

     -v - verbose operation - print debugging output to stdout.  Useful together
     with -d option.

     -d  -  do	not go to the background.  By default, the program forks a child
     that closes stdin, stdout and stderr, detaches from the controlling  termi-
     nal and continue in the background.  The parent process finishes.

     -I configfile Specify alternative location for the configuration file.  De-
     fault is /etc/whoson.conf.

     The  daemon implements one extentions to the "whoson" protocol: if you send
     a command verb LIST, the daemon responds with a multiline display	of  some
     statistics information.
