[PATCH] utils/statd.man: Clarify the --name argument usage

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Marcos Paulo de Souza <mpdesouza@xxxxxxxx>

The man page does not clarifies that the --name argument is only used by
the sm-notify command, and statd itself listen to all interfaces. This
change makes clear that the --name argument is only passed to sm-notify.
