NAME
     ocfserv - OCF server

SYNOPSIS
     ocfserv start

     ocfserv stop

DESCRIPTION
     The OCF server, ocfserv, is a per-host daemon that  acts  as
     the central point of communications with all smartcards con-
     nected to  the  host.  Any  application  needing  to  use  a
     smartcard  communicates  with  the  smartcard  through  this
     server, which is responsible for handling all traffic to the
     smartcards.  All APIs exposed by this project are internally
     implemented to communicate with the OCF server. Applications
     communicate with the OCRF server using a socket-based proto-
     col.

     At startup time, the server reads  the  properties  file  to
     determine the terminals and cards currently registered.

EXIT STATUS
     The following exit values are returned:

     0     Successful completion.

     >0    An error occurred.
