.SH "NAME"
updatedd-wrapper \- config- and cachefile support for updatedd
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B updatedd-wrapper
.I "[OPTION]..."
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Updatedd-wrapper is a perl program to execute updatedd. It uses
a configuration file with c-like syntax and a cache file for ip
addresses to prevent that a update with the same address will be
executed twice.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
.B \-c <path>
Use an alternative configuration file.
.br
Defaults:
.br
/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf
.br
/usr/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf
.br
/usr/local/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf
.TP
.B \-f
Force update of all records (do not check cached ip addresses).
.TP
.B \-i <secs>
Wait n seconds after a failed update until a new attempt will be tried.
.TP

Number of retries when an update failed.
This is only for updates that failed with return code 1 (warnings),
for example connection problems or not enough memory.
.TP
.B \-s
Print commands to stdout instead of executing updatedd.
This option may be used to check whether updatedd-wrapper reads
the configuration file correctly.
.TP
.B \-t <path>
Usually /tmp/updatedd-wrapper-<uid>.cache will be used as
cache-file, but you can specify another one with this option.
.TP
.B \-y
Print update status of all accounts to syslog.
The configuration in updatedd-wrapper.conf will be passed over.
.TP

Print help and exit.
