NAME

6       cockpit-bridge - Cockpit Host Bridge
7

SYNOPSIS

9       cockpit-bridge [--help] [--packages]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The cockpit-bridge program is used by Cockpit to relay messages and
13       commands from the Web front end to the server. Among other things it
14       relays DBus, and spawns processes on behalf of the Web user interface.
15
16       This program is not routinely run by users or administrators. It is in
17       the $PATH so that Cockpit can find it when connecting between hosts.
18       However there are some diagnostics available when running from the
19       command line.
