Command Line Interface

After installing, this toolkit provides a two command line utilities

$ zget

and

$ zput

Upload

zput knows a few parameters that allow you to set the behaviour to your needs:

  • -a ADDRESS lets you manually set the IP address to broadcast and bind to (e.g. 192.168.0.1)
  • -i INTERFACE lets you manually select the network card to broadcast on (e.g. eth0)
  • -p PORT lets you manually select the port to open. (e.g. 8080)
  • -v (one or more) lets you increase verbosity, to debug failing connections.
  • -q lets you hide the progress bar, for batch processing.
  • -t SECONDS lets you set a timeout after which the transfer is aborted and a non-zero exit value is returned
  • -V Show version number and exit.
  • -h Show help and exit.
