pg(1) -- file perusal filter for soft-copy terminals
|
|
pg is a text file filter that allows the examination of files one screenful at a time on a soft-copy terminal. If - is used as a file argument, or pg detects NULL arguments in the comand line, the standard input is used. Each screenful is followed by a prompt. To display a new page, press Return. Other possibilities are enumerated below. This command is different from other paginators such as more... |

ping(1m) -- send ICMP Echo Request packets to network host
|
|
The ping command sends ICMP Echo Request (ECHO_REQUEST) packets to the host once per second. Each packet that is echoed back via an ICMP Echo Response packet is written to the standard output, including round-trip time. ICMP Echo Request datagrams ("pings") have an IP and ICMP header, followed by a struct timeval (see gettimeofday(2)) and an arbitrary number of "pad" bytes used to fill out the... |

pipcrm(1) -- remove a POSIX message queue or a POSIX named semaphore
|
|
The pipcrm command removes one or more specified POSIX message queue or POSIX named semaphore. |
|
pipcs(1) -- report status of POSIX interprocess communication facilities
|
|
pipcs displays certain information on active POSIX interprocess communication facilities. When no options are specified, pipcs displays information in short format for the POSIX message queues and POSIX named semaphores that are currently active in the system. |

plotdvr(1) -- filters invoked by lp interface scripts
|
|
Various filters are used by the lp subsystem to obtain specialized behavior for specific types of devices or data. This entry describes currently supported filters. A number of these filters use a specified username and filename to determine the location of the user who originated the print message. The filename is used to determine the hostname of the system where the request originated, and must... |

portmap(1m) -- universal addresses to RPC program number mapper
|
|
rpcbind is a server that converts RPC program numbers into universal addresses. It must be running on the host to be able to make RPC calls on a server on that machine. When an RPC service is started, it tells rpcbind the address at which it is listening, and the RPC program numbers it is prepared to serve. When a client wishes to make an RPC call to a given program number, it first contacts rpcbi... |

power_onoff(1m) -- timed, automatic system power on, and power off
|
|
power_onoff instructs the UPS monitor (ups_mond) to shut down the system, and optionally informs the monitor when to power on the system again. The UPS monitor in turn instructs the uninterruptible power source (UPS) when to turn the power off and on. The UPS monitor then proceeds to shut down the system. The time to restart the system (power on) is specified with power_onoff command-line argument... |

ppl(1) -- PPP daemon
|
|
pppd is a daemon process used in UNIX systems to manage connections to other hosts using PPP (Point to Point Protocol) or SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol). It uses the UNIX host's native serial ports. It communicates with the UNIX kernel's own TCP/IP implementation via the HP IP tunnel driver. The functionality supplied by this daemon supersedes that provided by ppl(1) in HP-UX prior to Rele... |

pppoec(1) -- PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) client
|
|
pppoec discovers an access concentrator that is willing to offer services to the client. It obtains a unique session-id from the selected access concentrator. pppoec then forks a pppd daemon which performs the session phase functionalities of PPPoE as mentioned in RFC 2516. |
|
pppoerd(1m) -- PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) relay
|
|
You need the pppoerd daemon if the PPPoE client and the server are not on the same link. |
|
pppoesd(1m) -- PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) server daemon
|
|
pppoesd performs the server side discovery phase functionalities of PPPoE as mentioned in RFC 2516. The pppoesd daemon responds to PADI and PADR packets from clients if it can offer services desired by the client. pppoesd generates a unique session-id for every client that it services. It then forks a pppd daemon which performs the session phase functionalities of PPPoE as mentioned in RFC 2516. |

pr(1) -- print files
|
|
The pr command prints the named files on the standard output. If file is -, or if no files are specified, the standard input is assumed. By default, the listing is separated into pages, each headed by the page number, a date and time, and the name of the file. By default, columns are of equal width, separated by at least one space; lines that do not fit are truncated. If the -s option is used, lin... |

praliases(1) -- print system-wide sendmail aliases
|
|
praliases prints out the contents of the alias data base used by sendmail to resolve system-wide mail aliases. The alias data base is built with the command newaliases or /usr/sbin/sendmail -bi. See sendmail(1M). The options are: -C file Read the sendmail configuration file specified with this option instead of the default configuration file. -f Accesses the alias database built from file with the... |
