The option 'vdradminupdate=path' or 'use_sighup_?' is used for the manual update (force new search) of autotimer.
1. If the specified file is executable, it will run with parameter 'restart'.
For instance you can specify there vdradmin´s start script /etc/init.d/vdradmin.
This start script stops and restarts the vdradmind and thereby it starts a new autotimersearch.
2. If it isn´t an executable file, it is the configuration file of vdradmind (/etc/vdradmin/vdradmind.conf).
Then this file is searched for parameters for user, password and port.
After that 'wget http://user:password@localhost:port/vdradmin.pl?aktion=force_update' is called.
Note, that the program 'wget' should be installed.
3. For use_sighup_vdradmin is a new version of vdradmind required (>=0.96) or a patch for 0.95. The plugin search the pip of
vdradmind.pl and send a sighup for update the autotimer.
4. use_sighup_xxv, The plugin search the pip of xxv.pl and send a sighup for update the autotimer.
For option 1., 3. or 4. is vdradmind/xxv runing on the same machine required.
For option 2. is only a config-file with the parameter
PASSWORD = xxx
SERVERHOST = a.b.c.d
SERVERPORT = 8000
USERNAME = linvdr
for a vdradmin on a remote machine required.
***************************************************************************************************************************
Wenn die angegebene Datei ausführbar ist, so wird sie mit dem Parameter 'restart' aufgerufen.
z.B. könnte hier das Startscript von vdradmin (/etc/init.d/vdradmin) angegeben werden.
Mit diesem Startscript wird der vdradmind entladen und neu gestartet und dadurch werden die Autotimer-Einträge neu gesucht.
Wenn es keine ausführbare Datei ist, handelt es sich um die Konfigurationsdatei von vdradmind (/etc/vdradmin/vdradmind.conf).
Diese Datei wird dann nach den Parametern für User, Passwort und Port durchsucht.
Anschließend wird 'wget http://user:passwort@localhost:port/vdradmin.pl?aktion=force_update' aufgerufen.
Dazu muß natürlich das Programm 'wget' installiert sein.
