Documentation RATelServer Argument

This documentation explains the operation of the server (RATelServer.py) and its functionalities.

Functioning :

The functioning of the server can vary depending on past arguments, that's why I'll try to make a rather general description of the server. 

When connecting a new client to the server, the client sends the first information: the token, the current RAT folder, the user rights and the user login. This step is called HANDSHAKE.

For each new client, the server assigns an ID which is presented as a session number. Once the HANDSHAKE is finished, the server stores all the information received (Session number, IP address, port, RAT path, user rights and user login) in a SQLite database.

This allows in case of network or other problems, to identify and reconnect the clients to the server.

Arguments:

Argument	Syntax	Example	Commant
-i / --ip	--ip <ip of server>	-i 127.0.0.1	The ip address of the server, this is handy if you have several IP addresses.
-p / --port	`--port ``	--port 4444	The listening port of the server.
-t / --time	--time <seconds>	--time 120	The number of seconds that a message is automatically sent to check if the connection is alive or dead.
-pa /--password	--password <your password>	--password ciscoTheBoss	The password for encrypting and decrypting data on the network. If the password is not the same as the client then it will be impossible to decrypt the messages.
-c / --clean	--clean	--clean	Cleans up all data in the SQLite database.
-d / --display	--display	--display	Disables the display of client information (logout and incoming connection).
-h / --help	--help	--help	show this help message

---

Example of command :

$ /usr/bin/python3 RATelServer.py --port 8888 --password LinuxIsBestOS --time 120 --clean

This command allows to listen on port 8888, decrypt and encrypt data with the LinuxIsBestOS password, ping the client every 2 minutes and delete database data.
