CATSIT(8) System Manager's Manual CATSIT(8) NAME catsit -- catsitd control SYNOPSIS catsit [-q] [-c control] start|stop|restart|status|drop|signal service ... DESCRIPTION The catsit utility controls the services managed by the catsitd(8) daemon. It does so by writing the remainder of its command line to a named pipe. Communication with catsitd(8) is unidirectional. The daemon logs any feed- back with syslog. The catsit utility waits a tenth of a second after send- ing the command then shows recent messages from catsitd(8) in /var/log/messages. The arguments are as follows: -c control Set the path of the named pipe. -q Do not show /var/log/messages. start Start any matching services which are not already started. Ser- vices scheduled for automatic restart are started immediately but their restart intervals are not reset. stop Stop any matching services which are not already stopped. Processes are stopped using the TERM signal. restart Restart any matching services. Started services will be stopped and started again. Stopped services will be started. Services scheduled for automatic restart will be started immediately and their restart intervals will be reset. status Log the current status of any matching services. drop Drop any matching stopped services from the services list. signal Send the named signal to the processes of any matching started ser- vices. Signal names are case-insensitive. service ... The list of services to operate on, using shell-style pattern matching as in glob(7). Patterns must be quoted to be interpreted by catsitd(8) rather than the shell. Each service name pattern is operated on in order, but services matched by each pattern are in unspecified order. ENVIRONMENT CATSITD_PIPE The path of the named pipe. The -c flag overrides this variable. FILES /var/run/catsitd.pipe The default path of the named pipe.
