.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
\fBPrivoxy\fR may be invoked with the following command line
options:
.TP
+\fB\-\-chroot\fR
+Before changing to the user ID given in the \-\-user option, chroot to
+that user's home directory, i.e. make the kernel pretend to the
+\fBPrivoxy\fR process that the directory tree starts
+there. If set up carefully, this can limit the impact of possible
+vulnerabilities in \fBPrivoxy\fR to the files contained in
+that hierarchy.
+.TP
+\fB\-\-config-test\fR
+Exit after loading the configuration files before binding to
+the listen address. The exit code signals whether or not the
+configuration files have been successfully loaded.
+
+If the exit code is 1, at least one of the configuration files
+is invalid, if it is 0, all the configuration files have been
+successfully loaded (but may still contain errors that are
+currently only be detected at run time).
+
+This option doesn't affect the log setting, combination with
+"--no-daemon" is recommended if a configured log file shouldn't
+be used.
+.TP
\fB\-\-help\fR
Print brief usage info and exit.
.TP
-\fB\-\-version\fR
-Print version info and exit.
-.TP
\fB\-\-no-daemon\fR
Don't become a daemon, i.e. don't fork and become process group
leader, don't detach from controlling tty, and do all logging there.
Failure to create or delete the \fIpidfile\fR
is non-fatal. If no \fB\-\-pidfile\fR option is given, no PID file will be used.
.TP
+\fB\-\-pre-chroot-nslookup \fIhostname\fB\fR
+Initialize the resolver library using \fIhostname\fR
+before chroot'ing. On some systems this reduces the number of files
+that must be copied into the chroot tree.
+.TP
\fB\-\-user \fIuser[.group]\fB\fR
After (optionally) writing the PID file, assume the user ID of
\fIuser\fR and the GID of
\fIuser\fR. Exit if the privileges are not
sufficient to do so.
.TP
-\fB\-\-chroot\fR
-Before changing to the user ID given in the \-\-user option, chroot to
-that user's home directory, i.e. make the kernel pretend to the
-\fBPrivoxy\fR process that the directory tree starts
-there. If set up carefully, this can limit the impact of possible
-vulnerabilities in \fBPrivoxy\fR to the files contained in
-that hierarchy.
-.TP
-\fB\-\-pre-chroot-nslookup \fIhostname\fB\fR
-Initialize the resolver library using \fIhostname\fR
-before chroot'ing. On some systems this reduces the number of files
-that must be copied into the chroot tree.
+\fB\-\-version\fR
+Print version info and exit.
.PP
If the \fIconfigfile\fR is not specified on the command line,
\fBPrivoxy\fR will look for a file named
documentation directory.
.SH "SIGNALS"
.PP
-\fBPrivoxy\fR terminates on the \fBSIGINT\fR,
-\fBSIGTERM\fR and \fBSIGABRT\fR signals. Log
+\fBPrivoxy\fR terminates on the \fBSIGINT\fR
+and \fBSIGTERM\fR signals. Log
rotation scripts may cause a re-opening of the logfile by sending a
\fBSIGHUP\fR to \fBPrivoxy\fR. Note that unlike
other daemons, \fBPrivoxy\fR does not need to be made aware of
config file changes by \fBSIGHUP\fR -- it will detect them
-automatically.
+automatically. Signals other than the ones listed above aren't explicitly
+handled and result in the default action defined by the operating system.
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
+This is a UNRELEASED version of \fBPrivoxy\fR. Not
+all features are well tested.
+.PP
Please see the \fIUser Manual\fR on how to contact the
developers, for feature requests, reporting problems, and other questions.
