**Serve from your current directory:**

`updog`

**Serve from another directory:**

`updog -d /another/directory`

`updog -p 1234`

**Password protect the page:**

`updog --password examplePassword123!`

*Please note*: updog uses HTTP basic authentication.
To login, you should leave the username blank and just
enter the password in the password field.

**Use an SSL connection (ad-hoc certificate):**

`updog --ssl`

**Use an SSL connection with custom certificates:**

`updog --ssl-cert /path/to/cert.pem --ssl-key /path/to/key.pem`

**Bind to a specific IP address:**

`updog -b 192.168.1.10 -p 8080`

**Enable CORS for web application testing:**

`updog --cors`

**Hide full directory paths (OpSec):**

`updog --hide-base-path`
