sfsauthd daemon/usr/local/lib/sfs-0.6/sfsauthd [-u sockfile] [-f config-file]
sfsauthd is the program responsible for authenticating
users. sfsrwsd and other daemons communicate with
sfsauthd, forwarding it authentication requests from
sfsagent processes on remote client machines.
sfsauthd informs requesting daemons of whether
authentication requests are valid, and if so what local credentials to
associate with the remote user agent. The sfskey program
also communicates directly with remote sfsauthd processes
when retrieving and updating users keys (with sfskey add,
update, register, and more).
-f config-file
sfssauthd_config configuration file,
sfsauthd_config. The default, if -f is unspecified, is
/etc/sfs/sfsauthd_config.
-u path
sfssd
to communicate with already running sfsauthd commands using
a directive like Service 2 -u path in sfssd_config
sfssd_config.
