.SH NAME
zhm \- Zephyr HostManager
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B /etc/athena/zhm
[
.BI -d
] [
.BI server
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Zhm
is the link between a client machine and the zephyr server.  All
notices sent from programs on the client are funneled through
.I zhm.
This allows all client programs to be much simpler in function, since
the HostManager is responsible for handling errors, retransmitting
lost notices, and holding all notices until they are acknowledged.
.PP
The
.I -d
option turns on debugging mode, and sends its information to syslog
LOG_DAEMON messages.
.PP
The optional
.I server
argument is used to override the default primary server, supplied by
the
.I hesiod(3)
name server.
