A utility to manage all socats of yours
Project description
socatlord
socatlord is a tool to manage multiple socats
You feed it with a config file placed at
/etc/socatlord that has the syntax like:
# this is a comment
9.9.9.9:80 -> 123.23.4.3.:81
80 -> 192.168.224.20:80
udp 0.0.0.0:23 -> 192.168.224.20:23
TCP is the default protocol. Socatlord will spawn as many socats as necessary.
Usage
After you put this file, call socatlord install. This will install and enable socatlord to start
during your startups (only if you're using Systemd).
/etc/socatlord will be created about then, if it does not already exists. If you haven't done so,
now it would be a good time to fill it up.
Note that installation itself will not start socatlord! After installation put your configuration in
/etc/socatlord.
Later call either socatlord run
or systemctl start socatlord.service to terminate currently running socats and launch your own.
This may terminate your SSH connection, if you're using a socat to proxy it though, however it will destroy them
and restart in one go.
You can also call socatlord stop to stop all socats.
You can provide an optional argument of -v to see what commands are launched.
You can provide an optional explicit path to config file, if /etc/socatlord is meant not to be used.
socatlord must be run as root. A check will be made for this.
