-o
Used with the
-p
option. This option prevents the slave
pseudo-tty from closing so as to prevent any flushing of
data that may occur. With this option set, the daemon
will not close the TCP connection so its use is not
advised for modems, as line hang-ups may not be
initiated. It is useful for slow printers that may lose data
on pseudo-tty close.
-f
<file>
Specify a different configuration file. If the pathname is
relative, the current working directory will be used.
-F
This option causes
ioland
to use the same
pseudotty
each and every time (
fixed tty
). The syntax for using this
option is:
ioland -F <other options> <iolan> <master device>
<slave device>
e.g: ioland -F bronto ptyp3 ttyp3
-k<n>
This option checks if the TCP connection is still alive
every
n
seconds. If the test fails, the child daemon
process dies and signals the parent daemon that the
connection is lost.
-K
This invokes 'silent keepalives'. Normal keepalives set
by the
-k
flag send ASCII text messages which can go
through
iolan
and
ioland
and become visible to users
and applications. The
-K
flag prevents this.
-s<desired character transfer rate>
This option causes
ioland
to 'meter' characters sent to
the iolan.
-x<n>
Set the daemon debug/diagnostic level to
n
. On startup,
a log file called
/etc/ioland.lg
is created (if not already
there). All daemons on the host will write their debug
and diagnostic messages to this file with a timestamp,
daemon process id and arguments attached to the actual
diagnostic. The debug and diagnostics levels are:
