Synopsis

Convert a fitacf format TCP/IP data stream to a fit format stream.

Options

`--help`	print the help message and exit.
`--version`	print the RST version number and exit.
`-t timeout`	set the time to wait before resetting the connection to timeout seconds
`-L logname`	log connections and information in the file logname. By default, connections are recorded in `log.rt`.
`-T timename`	log the time that the last packet was received in the file timename. By default, the time is recorded in `time.rt`.
`-pf portname`	record the port number that the server is listening for connections on in the file portname. By default, the port is recorded in `port.id`.
`-if pidname`	record the process Identifier (PID) of the server in the file pidname. By default, the PID is recorded in `pid.id`.
`-lp lport`	force the server to listen on the local port number port. By default, the server requests a port number from the Operating System.
`host`	hostname or IP number of the system to connect to.
`rport`	port number to connect to on the server.
`-rpf`	The remote port number is stored in a text file.
`rportname`	filename of the text file containing the remote port number.

Description

Convert a fitacf format TCP/IP data stream to a fit format stream.

This task can be used to reformat a TCP/IP data stream to supply legacy clients.

Examples

rtfitacftofit -L log -pf port.id -if pid.id -lp 5000 peanut.jhuapl.edu 1024

Reformat the fitacf data stream from the port 1024 on the server peanut.jhuapl.edu. The port number is recorded in the file "port.id", the process identifier is recorded in the file "pid.id", and logs of all transactions are recorded in the file "log.yyyymmdd" where yyyymmdd is the date.

rtfitacftofit -L log -pf port.id -if pid.id -rpf localhost port.gbr

Reformat the fitacf data stream served from the port listed in "port.gbr" on this host. The port number is recorded in the file "port.id", the process identifier is recorded in the file "pid.id", and logs of all transactions are recorded in the file "log.yyyymmdd" where yyyymmdd is the date.
