       This is the control program for the gvpe, the virtual private ethernet daemon.

-c, --config=DIR
           Read configuration options from DIR.

       -g, --generate-key=path
           Generates  a single RSA key-pair. The public key will be stored in path while the private key will be
           stored in path.privkey. Neither file must be non-empty for this to succeed.

           The public key file path is normally copied to pubkey/nodename in the config directory on all  nodes,
           while the private key path.privkey should be copied to the file hostkey on the node the key is for.

           It's  recommended  to generate the keypair on the node where it will be used, so that the private key
           file does not have to travel over the network.

       -G, --generate-keys
           Generate public/private RSA key-pairs for all nodes not having a key and exit.

           Note that in normal configurations this will fail, as there cna only be one private key per host.  To
           make  this configuration work you need to specify separate keyfiles for hostkeys in your config file,
           e.g.:

              private-key = hostkeys/%s

           Such a configuration makes it easier to distribute a configuration  centrally  but  requires  private
           keys to be transported securely over the network.

       -q, --quiet
           Suppresses messages the author finds nonessential for scripting purposes.

       --help
           Display short list of options.

       --kill[=SIGNAL]
           Attempt  to  kill  a  running  gvpectrl (optionally with the specified SIGNAL instead of SIGTERM) and
           exit.

       --show-config
           Show a summary of the configuration, and how gvpe  interprets  it.  Can  also  be  very  useful  when
           designing firewall scripts.

       --version
           Output version information and exit.
