NAME

rpyc_classic - RPyC classic server

SYNOPSIS

rpyc_classic

[ options ]

DESCRIPTION

RPyC (pronounced as are-pie-see), or Remote Python Call, is a transparent Python library for symmetrical remote procedure calls, clustering and distributed-computing. RPyC makes use of object-proxying, a technique that employs Python’s dynamic nature, to overcome the physical boundaries between processes and computers, so that remote objects can be manipulated as if they were local.

rpyc_classic is the server component which enables remote access to the local system. The following options are available:
--mode MODE , -m MODE

Select mode of operation. One of threaded , forking , stdio , oneshot .

--port PORT , -p PORT

The TCP port which the server listens to. The default is 18812 for unauthenticated instances and 18821 for SSL authenticated ones.

--host INTERFACE

Bind to network interface INTERFACE . The default is localhost .

--ipv6

Enable IPv6.

--logfile FILE

Write log to FILE . If not specified, log output is written to stderr .

--quiet , -q

Quiet mode. Only errors will be logged.

RPyC Registry

A server instance can be registered with a running rpyc_registry (1) for automated service discovery by clients:
--registry-type TYPE

Connect to the registry via TCP or UDP (which is the default).

--registry-port PORT

Connect to the registry on port PORT . The default is 18811.

--registry-host HOST

Connect to the registry at host HOST . This is a required option for TCP registries. If no host is specified for UDP, the server will attempt a broadcast via IP 255.255.255.255 to reach any listening registry in the local network.

SSL Authenticated Mode

The server supports authentication and authorization via SSL certificates. WARNING: While this mode provides a modest amount of security, there are serious shortcomings such as a missing certificate revocation mechanism. Do not rely on this to expose vital infrastructure to the Internet.

You need to specify the following options to enable this mode:
--ssl-cafile FILE

Read the Certificate Authority (CA) certificate from FILE . The CA is used to determine which client certificates are authorized to connect to the server; only client certificates which have been issued by the CA are accepted. WARNING : If this option is omitted, the server will allow any client to connect, which is probably not what you want.

--ssl-certfile FILE

Read the SSL server certificate from FILE . This certificate is presented to connecting clients to let them verify that the server is genuine.

--ssl-keyfile FILE

Read the private SSL server key for the server certificate from FILE .
