fce_listen - Man Page

fce_listen [-h host] [-p port]

fce_listen is a simple listener for Netatalk's Filesystem Change Event (FCE) protocol. It will print out any UDP datagrams received from the AFP server to stdout.

-h host

: Server hostname or IP address

-p port

: Server port number

Configure netatalk to emit FCE packets to a listener on localhost port 58585, in afp.conf:

[Global]
fce listener = localhost:58585
fce version = 2
fce events = fmod,fdel,ddel,fcre,dcre,fmov,dmov,login,logout

Listen to FCE events on localhost port 58585

$ fce_listen -h localhost -p 58585
