-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
-
-<I>Barf</I>
-
-outputs (on standard output) a collection of debugging information
-(contents of files, selections from logs, etc.)
-related to the IPsec encryption/authentication system.
-It is primarily a convenience for remote debugging,
-a single command which packages up (and labels) all information
-that might be relevant to diagnosing a problem in IPsec.
-<P>
-
-<P>
-
-The
-<B>--short</B>
-
-option limits the length of
-the log portion of
-<I>barf</I>'s
-
-output, which can otherwise be extremely voluminous
-if debug logging is turned on.
-<P>
-
-<I>Barf</I>
-
-censors its output,
-replacing keys
-and secrets with brief checksums to avoid revealing sensitive information.
-<P>
-
-Beware that the output of both commands is aimed at humans,
-not programs,
-and the output format is subject to change without warning.
-<P>
-
-<I>Barf</I>
-
-has to figure out which files in
-<I>/var/log</I>
-
-contain the IPsec log messages.
-It looks for KLIPS and general log messages first in
-<I>messages</I>
-
-and
-<I>syslog</I>,
-
-and for Pluto messages first in
-<I>secure</I>,
-
-<I>auth.log</I>,
-
-and
-<I>debug</I>.
-
-In both cases,
-if it does not find what it is looking for in one of those ``likely'' places,
-it will resort to a brute-force search of most (non-compressed) files in
-<I>/var/log</I>.

-<H2>BUGS</H2>
-
-<I>Barf</I>
-
-uses heuristics to try to pick relevant material out of the logs,
-and relevant messages
-which are not labelled with any of the tags that
-<I>barf</I>
-
-looks for will be lost.
-We think we've eliminated the last such case, but one never knows...
-<P>
-
-Finding
-<I>updown</I>
-
-scripts (so they can be included in output) is, in general, difficult.
-<I>Barf</I>
-
-uses a very simple heuristic that is easily fooled.
-<P>
-
-The brute-force search for the right log files can get expensive on
-systems with a lot of clutter in
-<I>/var/log</I>.
