Manages Battle for Wesnoth multiplayer games. See http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/ServerAdministration on what commands the server accepts via the wesnoth client (/query ...) or the fifo. . .SH OPTIONS . .TP .BI -c\ path ,\ --config \ path tells wesnothd where to find the config file to use. See the section .B SERVER CONFIG below for the syntax. You can reload the config with sending SIGHUP to the server process. .TP .B -d, --daemon runs wesnothd as a daemon. .TP .B -h, --help tells you what the command line options do. .TP .BI --log- level = domain1 , domain2 , ... sets the severity level of the log domains. .B all can be used to match any log domain. Available levels: .BR error ,\ warning ,\ info ,\ debug . By default the .B error level is used and the .B info level for the .B server domain. .TP .BI -p\ port ,\ --port \ port binds the server to the specified port. If no port is specified, port .B 15000 will be used. .TP .BI -t\ number ,\ --threads \ number sets the maximum number of waiting worker threads for network I/O to n (default: .BR 5 ,\ max:\ 30 ). .TP .BI -T\ number ,\ --max-threads \ number sets the maximum number of worker threads that will be created. If set to .B 0 there will be no limit (default: .BR 0 ). .TP .B -V, --version shows version number and exits. .TP .B -v, --verbose turns debug logging on. . .SH SERVER CONFIG . .SS The general syntax is: . .P [\fItag\fR] .IP key="\fIvalue\fR" .IP key="\fIvalue\fR,\fIvalue\fR,..." .P [/\fItag\fR] . .SS "Global keys:" . .TP .B ban_save_file Full or relative path to a (gzip compressed) file that the server can read and write. Bans will be saved to this file and read again on server start. .TP .B connections_allowed The number of allowed connections from the same IP. \fB0\fR means infinite. (default: \fB5\fR) .TP .B disallow_names Names/nicks that are not accepted by the server. `*' and `?' from wildcard patterns are supported. See .BR glob (7) for more details. Default values (used if nothing is specified) are: .BR *admin*,*admln*,*server*,ai,ai?,computer,human,network,player . .TP .B fifo_path The path to the fifo you can echo server commands into (same as /query ... from wesnoth). If not specified defaults to the compile-time specified path (default: /var/run/socket/wesnothd/socket). .TP .B max_messages The number of allowed messages in \fBmessages_time_period\fR. (default: \fB4\fR) .TP .B messages_time_period The time period (in seconds) message flooding is detected in. (default: \fB10\fR seconds) .TP .B motd The message of the day. .TP .B passwd The password used to gain admin privileges. Usually it starts with `admin '. .TP .B restart_command The command that the server uses to start a new server process via the `restart' command. (Can only be issued via the fifo.) .TP .B versions_accepted A comma separated list of version strings to be accepted by the server. `*' and `?' from wildcard patterns are supported. (defaults to the corresponding wesnoth version) .br Example: \fBversions_accepted="*"\fR accepts any version string. . .SS "Global tags:" . .P .B [redirect] A tag to specify a server to redirect certain client versions to. .RS .TP .B host The address of the server to redirect to. .TP .B port The port to connect to. .TP .B version A comma separated list of versions to redirect. Behaves the same way as .B versions_accepted in regard to wildcard patterns. .RE .P .B [ban_time] A tag to define convenient keywords for temporary ban time lengths. .RS .TP .B name The name used to reference the ban time. .TP .B time The time length definition. The format is: %d[%s[%d%s[...]]] where %s is s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), D (days), M (months) or Y (years) and %d is a number. If no time modifier is given minutes (m) are assumed. Example: time="1D12h30m" results in a ban time of 1 day, 12 hours and 30 minutes. .RE .P .B [proxy] A tag to tell the server to act as a proxy and forward the connected client's requests to the specified server. Accepts the same keys as .BR [redirect] . . .SH AUTHOR . Written by David White . Edited by Nils Kneuper , ott and Soliton .
