# The `s6-taiclockd` program

`s6-taiclockd` is a server for the TAICLOCK protocol. It's a long-lived program listening to the network and answering to TAICLOCK clients such as s6-taiclock.

## Interface

         s6-taiclockd [ -i ip ] [ -p port ]

- s6-taiclockd listens to all network addresses on UDP port 4014.
- Whenever it receives a TAICLOCK request, it answers immediately with the TAI time given by its local system clock.
- It runs until killed by a signal.

## Options

- `-i ip` : bind to ip instead of all available addresses. ip can be IPv4 or IPv6.
- `-p port` : bind to port port instead of 4014.
