NAME
pathrelay - relays (or copies or forwards) data between multiple paths
SYNOPSIS
pathrelay
[ [
option...
]
path
]...
DESCRIPTION
Pathrelay
copies data between all the
path
arguments. That is, any
data that are read from one
path
are written to all the others.
Options can precede each path, and apply
only to the immediately following path.
Path
arguments have one of the following forms:
- hostname:portnum
-
When the
path
has the form
hostname:portnum,
a (client) socket connection is made to that
hostname
and
port.
- nnn
-
When the
path
is a simple number
nnn,
pathrelay
acts as a server, accepting
client connections on port number
nnn.
- *
-
Otherwise, the
path
is treated as an ordinary pathname in the filesystem.
OPTIONS
- -conns nnn
-
When acting as a server
(path
is just a port number),
pathrelay
will limit the number of simultaneous clients to
nnn.
- -allow globpat
-
When acting as a server
(path
is just a port number),
pathrelay
will only accept clients whose Internet address (not name)
matches this glob pattern.

EXAMPLES
Give network access to a serial device
by relaying between the serial port and socket 1234,
limiting the network connections to hosts matching glob pattern
192.168.*.*:
pathrelay -mode 19200,odd,8,1 /dev/ttyS0 \
-allow "192.168.*.*" 1234
