NAME

Muscand – File scanner daemon for Museek

SYNOPSIS

muscand [-c <filename>] [–config <filename>] [-b] [–buddy] [-l] [–list] [-h] [–help] [-v] [–verbose] [–no-reload]

DESCRIPTION

Muscand is a FAM service that scans paths already configured by muscan(1) or musetup(1). If it detects changes to the paths, it will update the Shares Database it is watching after a few seconds. There are two available shares databases, Normal and Buddies-Only. Buddies-Only is an optional shares database that, if enabled, is only accessable by the users you’ve chosen as "Buddies".

Before running muscand, you will need a configured museekd, which can be done with musetup(1) or fI>musetup-gtk(1), and add some shared paths with either of the setup tools or with muscan(1).

OPTIONS

Muscand accepts the following options:

-c <filename>, –config <filename>: Use a different config file.
-b, –buddy: Select Buddy-Only Shares.
-h, –help: Display Help, version and exit.
-v, –verbose: Be verbose while scanning shares.
–no-reload: Don’t ask museekd to reload the database

EXAMPLE

muscand

Alternativly you use a different config file with:

muscand –config config.xml

Or, you can watch Buddy-Only shares:

muscand –buddy
