From 7071520e50d000e08f57261e5398eba6888c68f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Wooding Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2018 10:59:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] noip.1: Clarify ACL list syntax. The ACLish keywords add lists rather than individual entries. The `impbind' keyword had no explanation of how entries were separated. Fix this garbled mess. --- noip.1 | 19 ++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/noip.1 b/noip.1 index 6600b9d..f4598da 100644 --- a/noip.1 +++ b/noip.1 @@ -123,9 +123,10 @@ variable can also be used to control which ports are assigned automatically. .TP .BI "realbind " acl-entry -Add an entry to the +Add a comma-separated list of entries to the .B realbind -access control list (ACL).
