Cascade Daemon

Synopsis

cascaded [OPTIONS]

Description

cascaded is the daemon process of Cascade, a friendly DNSSEC signing solution.

For more information about Cascade, please refer to the Cascade documentation at https://cascade.docs.nlnetlabs.nl.

Options

--check-config

Check the configuration and exit with code 0 if the configuration is valid, or code 1 if the configuration is invalid.

--state <PATH>

The global state file to use.

-c, --config <PATH>

The configuration file to load. Defaults to /etc/cascade/config.toml.

--log-level <LEVEL>

The minimum severity of messages to log [possible values: trace, debug, info, warning, error, critical].

Defaults to info, unless set in the config file.

-l, --log <TARGET>

Where logs should be written to [possible values: stdout, stderr, file:<PATH>, syslog].

Changed in version 0.1.0-alpha2: Added types stdout and stderr. Type file with values /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr can still be used but may not work properly in some cases, e.g. when running under systemd.

-d, --daemonize

Whether Cascade should fork on startup. This option changes the working directory to the root directory and as such influences where files are looked for. Use absolute path names in configuration to avoid ambiguities.

-h, --help

Print the help text (short summary with -h, long help with --help).

-V, --version

Print version.
