NAME
     bnproxy - bnetd tracking daemon

SYNOPSIS
     bntrackd [options]

DESCRIPTION
     bntrackd  is a simple daemon which will listen for UDP announcement packets
     sent by bnetd(1) servers.	The list of  servers  and  their  statistics  is
     written  to  a text file an optionally processed by an external program.  A
     perl(1) script is provided which processes this information to  produce  an
     HTML document suitable for display on the web.

     bnetd(1)  servers	must  be  configured to report to tracking servers.  The
     bnetd.conf(5) file allows for multiple tracking servers to be listed  sepa-
     rated  by	commas.   The master server is track.bnetd.org.  Please consider
     including that server in your configuration.

OPTIONS
     -c --command
	    Run the specified command after writing server information	to  out-
	    file.     If   this   option   is	not   specified,   the	 command
	    "scripts/process.pl" is executed from the  directory  that	bntrackd
	    was started.  If an empty string is provided for command, no command
	    will be executed.

     -e --expire

     -l --logfile

	    the directory that bntrackd was started.  If an empty string is pro-
	    vided for logfile, no event messages will be written.

     -o --outfile
	    Put the server information into the specified file outfile..

     -p --port
