NAME

6       yac2ncid - YAC server to NCID server gateway

SYNOPSIS

9       yac2ncid [-v] [-p <PIDFILE>]
10       yac2ncid [-V]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       YAC2NCID  acts  as  a YAC client, listens to the CID information from a
14       YAC server and sends it to the NCID server.  The server then sends  the
15       CID information to the  NCID clients.
16
17       It  is important to understand that to run YAC server with NCID clients
18       you must run YAC2NCID gateway as well as NCID server.
19
20       The configuration file for yac2ncid is /etc/ncid/yac2ncid.conf.  It may
21       be located in same directory as the script, or in the etc directory, or
22       in NCID default configuration directory.  Read the comments in the con‐
23       fig file for more details.
24
25       YAC2NCID  can  run on any system, but normally it is run on same box as
26       the NCID server.  If it is not run on the same box as the NCID  server,
27       you must configure the server IP address in the configuration file.
28
29       Configure the YAC server with IP address of the box running YAC2NCID .
30
31       YAC2NCID  relies on netcat binary (nc). As there are multiple implemen‐
32       tations of this binary in existence, the script will try to auto detect
33       the  options to use. If script is unable to properly detect the version
34       of nc, set NETCAT_TYPE to CUSTOM in the  config  file  and  set  custom
35       parameters to match your version.
36
37       There  is  also  a  client output module called ncid-yac.  It sends the
38       NCID CID information to YAC clients.
