-b

: starts in background, writing oscam.version with starttime and version info in temporary directory

-c <directory>

: read configuration from <directory>, default:see CS_CONFDIR in globals.h, while starting OSCam prints warnings on invalid keywords, comment lines start with # character.

-d <level>

: debug level mask:

   0 = no debugging (default)
   2 = ATR parsing info, ECM dumps, CW dumps
   4 = traffic from/to the reader
   8 = traffic from/to the clients
  16 = traffic to the reader-device on IFD layer
  32 = traffic to the reader-device on I/O layer
  64 = EMM logging
128 = DVBAPI logging
255 = debug all

-h

-s

-t <directory>

-r <level>

: restart level:

   0 = disabled, restart request sets exit status to 99
   1 = restart activated, web interface can restart oscam (default)
   2 = like 1, but also restart on segmentation faults

-w <seconds>

-u

: enable output of web interface pages as UTF-8 charset. Note: If you enable this, you may not use umlauts (or anything above ASCII char 127) in variables anymore (especially not in usernames/passwords where you should not use special chars at all as the protocols are all not UTF-8 compatible!). Furthermore, some web interface bugs/log bugs may occur which will not be fixed (don't report bugs for this). Also note that we can only give support for OSCam if you don't have this enabled because of the issues described above. If in doubt, don't enable this.

SIGHUP

: reinit user db, TIERs, services, clients and anti-cascading, for newcamd connections: after reloading the ident, please restart newcamd client

SIGUSR1

SIGUSR2
