SYNOPSIS
========

bitmask-root [openvpn | firewall | version] [start | stop | isup] [ARGS]

DESCRIPTION
===========

*bitmask-root* is a privileged helper for bitmask.

It is used to start or stop openvpn and the bitmask firewall. To operate, it
needs to be executed with root privileges.


OPTIONS
=======

openvpn
--------

**start** [ARGS]       Starts openvpn. All args are passed to openvpn, and
                       filtered against a list of allowed args. If the next
                       argument is `restart`, the firewall will not be torn
                       down in the case of errors launching openvpn.

**stop**               Stops openvpn.


firewall
--------

**start** [GATEWAYS]   Starts the firewall. GATEWAYS is a list of EIP
                       gateways to allow in the firewall.

**stop**               Stops the firewall.

**isup**               Check if the firewall is up.


fw-email
--------

**start** UID          Starts the email firewall. UID is the user name or unix
                       id that will have access to the email.

**stop**               Stops the email firewall.

**isup**               Check if the email firewall is up.

version
--------

**version**             Prints the `bitmask-root` version string.
