DESCRIPTION

13       The chbind utility executes a command, and locks the resulting  process
14       and  its  children into using a specific IP number/Interface, no matter
15       what it is told in it's configuration. This  applies  to  services  and
16       client connection as well.

OPTIONS

19       --ip ip_number/interface
20              Binds  the  process  to  the given IP number or Interface. If an
21              interface is supplied (for example eth0), both the IP number and
22              broadcast address are extracted.
23
24       --bcast broadcast address
25              Binds the process to the given broadcast IP number.
26
27       --silent

EXAMPLES

37       If  I  wanted  to ensure my httpd listened only on my eth0 interface, I
38       could do: chbind --ip eth0 /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start
