.SH NAME
startsrv \- invoke ttysrv for a particular host.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B startsrv
.RI host
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
\fBstartsrv\fP fires up \fBttysrv\fP for a given host. It will kill any
already running instance for that host, then read
\fB/etc/remote-tty/opt/<host>.srv\fP for any options to pass to ttysrv
(defaulting to those that set 9600,8n1),
\fB/etc/remote-tty/prot/<host>.sock\fP for the permissions the socket should
be set to (default 660),
\fB/etc/remote-tty/owner/<host>.sock\fP for the owner of the socket
(default rttymgr:dialout) and \fB/etc/remote-tty/prot/<host>.log\fP for the
permissions of the logfile (default 640).
.PP
The device node used is \fB/etc/remote-tty/dev/<host>\fP. This will normally
be a symlink to the correct file in \fB/dev\fP.
.PP
\fBttysrv\fP is configured to log to \fB/var/log/remote-tty/<host>/<host>\fP,
with a pidfile at \fB/var/run/remote-tty/pid/<host>\fP and the socket at
\fB/var/run/remote-tty/sock/<host>\fP.
