--aliasfile; or -a

It is the name (including full path) of a text file (for example, /tmp/aliases) used by Zorp Authentication Agent Multiplexer to redirect the authentication requests of certain users to a different user in multiuser environments. For example, to redirect all authentication request of the root user to MainUser add the following line to the file: root: MainUser.

--log-spec; or -s

It sets verbosity mask on a per category basis. Each log message has an assigned multi-level category, where levels are separated by a dot. For example, HTTP requests are logged under http.request. The <spec> is a comma-separated list of log specifications. A single log specification consists of a wildcard matching log category, a colon, and a number specifying the verbosity level of that given category. The categories match from left to right, for example, --logspec 'http.*:5,core:3'. The last matching entry will be used as the verbosity of the given category. If no match is found the default verbosity specified with --verbose is used.

--no-require-ssl; or -S

It turns off the SSL encryption of the communication between Zorp and the Multiplexer.

--bind-address; or -b and, --bind-port; or -p

It is the IP address and the port, the Multiplexer is accepting connections on.
