yhost1

Y sound system host access modification

Usage

yhost [-] <address> [options]

Overview

Adds or removes host addresses from the Y server's list of hosts allowed to connect to it.

Address

Specifying a - infront of the argument means to remove the <address> from the list.

<address> is the numeric IP or named address of the host you want to allow/disallow access to the Y server.

Note that the yhost command must be runned on the same physical computer as the Y server is running on.

Options

--recorder <address:port>

Specify which Y server to connect to.

--help

Print help screen and exit.

Return value

0

Success.

1

General error.

2

Cannot connect to Y server error.

3

Systems error.

Environment

RECORDER

Specifies the Y server <address:port> to connect to. This is a fall back if the argument --recorder is not specified.

Examples

To add 63.97.42.127 to the yhost access list, type:

# yhost 63.97.42.127

To remove 63.97.42.127 from the yhost access list, type:

# yhost - 63.97.42.127

In all cases the yhost command must be runned on the same computer that the Y server is running on. Give IP (number and dots notation) addresses whenever possible to improve security.
