LEAPCTL(8)			 privleap Manual		      LEAPCTL(8)

NAME
     leapctl - Administrative utility for privleap

SYNOPSIS
     leapctl (--create|--destroy) username|uid

DESCRIPTION
     Provides  administrative controls for privleap. Right now this is only used
     to open and close sockets used to allow individual user accounts to  commu-
     nicate with the privleapd server.

     You  usually will not need to run this directly - if privleap was installed
     from your distribution's repository, it should be pre-configured to  create
     and destroy user communication sockets on user login and logout.

OPTIONS
     --create
	    Instructs  privleapd to create a communication socket for the speci-
	    fied user. This will allow the user to  communicate  with  privleapd
	    and request privileged operations to be run.

     --destroy
	    Instructs privleapd to destroy a communication socket for the speci-
	    fied  user.  This  will  prevent  the  user  from communicating with
	    privleapd any further.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     None.

CONFIG FILES
     See privleap-conf.d(5).

EXIT CODES
     0: The requested operation was successful, or did not need to be done.

     1: The requested operation failed.

     2: privleapd was requested to create a socket for a user, but the specified
     user is not permitted to have a comm socket.

EXAMPLES
     Create a communication socket for user user:

     leapctl --create user

     Destroy a communication socket for the user with UID 1001:

     leapctl --destroy 1001

NOTES
     leapctl communicates with privleapd using a UNIX socket that by default can
     only be read from and written to by root. You will therefore  usually  have
     to run leapctl as root for it to work.
