+tcsd \- daemon that manages Trusted Computing resources
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"

+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+Trousers is an open-source TCG Software Stack (TSS), released under the Common
+Public License. Trousers aims to be compliant with the current (1.1b) and
+upcoming (1.2) TSS specifications available from the Trusted Computing Group
+website: http://www.trustedcomputinggroup.org.
+
+\fBtcsd\fR is a user space daemon that should be (according to the TSS spec)
+the only portal to the TPM device driver. At boot time, \fBtcsd\fR should
+be started, it should open the TPM device driver and from that point on, all
+requests to the TPM should go through the TSS stack. The \fBtcsd\fR manages TPM
+resources and handles requests from TSP's both local and remote.

+
+.SH "ACCESS CONTROL"
+.PP
+There are two types of access control for the \fBtcsd\fR, access to the
+daemon's socket itself and access to specific commands internal to the
+\fBtcsd\fR. Access to the \fBtcsd\fR's port should be controlled by the system
+administrator using firewall rules. If using iptables, the following rule
+will allow a specific host access to the tcsd:
+
+# iptables -A INPUT -s $IP_ADDRESS -p tcp --destination-port 30003 -j ACCEPT
+
+Access to individual commands internal to the tcsd is configured by the
+\fBtcsd\fR configuration file's "remote_ops" directive. Each function call
+in the TCS API is reachable by a unique ordinal. Each labeled "remote op"
+actually defines a set of ordinals (usually more than one) necessary to
+accomplish the operation. So, for example, the "random" operation enables
+the ordinals for opening and closing a context, calling TCS_StirRandom
+and TCS_GetRandom, as well as TCS_FreeMemory. By default, connections from
+localhost will allow any ordinals.
+
+.SH "DATA FILES"
+.PP
+TSS applications have access to 2 different kinds of 'persistant' storage. 'User'
+persistant storage has the lifetime of that of the application using it
+and therefore is destroyed when an application exits. User PS is controlled
+by the TSP of the application. 'System' persistent storage is controlled by
+the TCS and stays valid across application lifetimes, \fBtcsd\fR restarts and
+system resets. Data registered in system PS stays valid until an application
+requests that it be removed. User PS files are by default stored as
+/var/tpm/user.{pid} and the system PS file by default is /var/tpm/system.data.
+The system PS file is initially created when ownership of the TPM is first
+taken.
+
+.SH "CONFIGURATION"
+\fBtcsd\fR configuration is stored by default in /etc/tcsd.conf
+
+.SH "DEBUG OUTPUT"
+If TrouSerS has been compiled with debugging enabled, the debugging output
+can be supressed by setting the TSS_DEBUG_OFF environment variable.
+
+.SH "DEVICE DRIVERS"
+.PP
+\fBtcsd\fR is compatible with the IBM Research TPM device driver available
+from http://www.research.ibm.com/gsal/tcpa and the TPM device driver available
+from http://sf.net/projects/tmpdd
+
+.SH "CONFORMING TO"
+.PP
+\fBtcsd\fR conforms to the Trusted Computing Group Software
+Specification version 1.1 Golden
