SILCD(8) silc-server SILCD(8) NAME silcd - SILC server SYNOPSIS silcd [ -f file | -d | -D | -x | -h | -F | -C | -V ] DESCRIPTION Silcd is a server for SILC, Secure Internet Live Conferencing network. OPTIONS -f FILE Read configuration from FILE. -d Enable debugging (Implies -F). -D LEVEL Enable debug messages of level LEVEL and lower (Implies -F). -x Enable hexdumps (Implies -d). -F Don't fork. Run silcd on foreground. -h Display help message. -V Display version. -C Create new public key pair. See KEY GENERATION for options. LONG OPTIONS --config-file=FILE Same as -f. --debug=STRING Same as -d, limit to messages *STRING*. --debug-level=LEVEL Same as -D. --hexdump Same as -x. --foreground Same as -F. --version Same as -V. --create-key-pair Same as -C. KEY GENERATION When generating new key pair for silcd (-C), the following extra switches apply: --pkcs=PKCS Set the public key algorithm of public key pair. For example rsa. --bits=VALUE Set the length of public key pair, in bits. --identifier=ID Set ID as public key identifier. The identifier has the format of: UN=, HN=, RN=, E=, O=, C= Both UN and HN are mandatory, all the rest are optional but recom- mended. If no --identifier is used, an identifier will be created automatically. Example: silcd -C --identifier="UN=foobar, HN=foo.bar.com, RN=Foo T. Bar, E=foo@bar.com, C=FI" FILES There are two configuration files for silcd: /etc/silc/silcd.conf for server configuration and /etc/silc/silcalgs.conf for SIM (SILC Modules) configuration. Do note that silcalgs.conf is only needed if crypto- graphic algorithms are built as separate modules.
