lif(4) -- logical interchange format description
|
|
LIF (Logical Interchange Format) is a Hewlett-Packard standard massstorage format that can be used for interchange of files among various HP computer systems. A LIF volume contains a header (identifying it as a LIF volume) and a directory that defines the contents (i.e. files) of the volume. The size of the directory is fixed when the volume is initialized (see lifinit(1)) and sets an upper bound ... |

localedef(4) -- format and semantics of locale definition file
|
|
This is a description of the syntax and meaning of the locale definition that is provided as input to the localedef command to create a locale (see localedef(1M)). The following is a list of category tags, keywords and subsequent expressions which are recognized by localedef. The order of keywords within a category is irrelevant with the exception of the copy keyword and other exceptions noted und... |

logingroup(4) -- group file, grp.h
|
|
group contains for each group the following information: + group name + encrypted password + numerical group ID + comma-separated list of all users allowed in the group This is an ASCII file. Fields are separated by colons, and each group is separated from the next by a new-line. No spaces should separate the fields or parts of fields on any line. If the password field is null, no password is asso... |

lvmpvg(4) -- LVM physical volume group information file
|
|
lvmpvg is an ASCII file that stores the volume-group information for all of the physical volume groups in the system. The information is stored in a hierarchical format. First, it starts with a volume group under which multiple physical volume groups can exist. Under each physical volume group, a list of physical volumes can be specified. There must be at least one physical volume group in each vo... |

magic(4) -- magic numbers for HP-UX implementations
|
|
The magic.h file localizes all information about HP-UX ``magic numbers'' in one file, thus facilitating uniform treatment of magic numbers. This file specifies the location of the magic number in a file (always the start of the file) and the structure of the magic number: struct magic_number { unsigned short system_id; unsigned short file_type; }; typedef struct magic_number MAGIC; magic.h inclu... |

model(4) -- HP-UX machine identification
|
|
There are certain inevitable distinctions between HP-UX implementations due to hardware differences. Where such distinctions exist, conditional compilation or other definitions can be used to isolate the differences. Flags and typedefs to resolve these distinctions are collected in the header file which contains constants identifying various HP-UX implementations. For example, header fil... |

named.conf(4) -- configuration file for NameDaemon
|
|
BIND 9 configuration is broadly similar to BIND 8.x. However, there are a few new areas of configuration, such as views. BIND 8.x configuration files should work with few alterations in BIND 9.2, although more complex configurations need to be reviewed to check if they can be more efficiently implemented using the new features implemented in BIND 9.2. BIND 4.9.7 configuration files can be converte... |
