 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      dce_intro - Introduction to the general DCE administration tools

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      This section describes publicly accessible DCE administration commands
      that are general to DCE rather than specific to a particular
      component.  These commands are as follows:


      csrc      The csrc utility is the code set registry compiler, which
                builds a DCE character and code set registry on a host from
                a source file supplied by a cell administrator.
                Administrators run the csrc utility when they are building
                an "internationalized" DCE cell.

      dce_config
                The dce_config shell command invokes a menu-driven interface
                that installs, configures, and starts up DCE.  The
                dce_config command displays a hierarchy of menus and invokes
                individual installation and configuration routines,
                according to users' menu selections.

      dcecp     The dcecp control program is the primary DCE administration
                interface, providing remote access to routine DCE
                administrative functions.

      dced      The DCE host daemon is a process that provides services for
                the local host, and is also the server used by remote
                applications to access these host services.

      getcellname
                Returns the name of the local cell.

      getip     Returns the IP address for a given machine name.
