ypmake(1m) -- create or rebuild Network Information Service databases
|
|
ypmake is a shell script that builds one or more Network Information Service (NIS) maps (databases) on a master NIS server. If no arguments are specified, ypmake either creates maps if they do not already exist or rebuilds maps that are not current. These maps are constructed from ASCII files. ypmake then executes yppush to notify slave NIS servers of the change and make the slave servers copy the... |

ypmatch(1) -- print values of selected keys in Network Information Service map
|
|
ypmatch prints the values associated with one or more keys in a Network Information Service (NIS) map specified by mname. The mname can be either a mapname or a map nickname. A map nickname is a synonym by which a NIS map can be referenced. If multiple keys are specified, the same map is searched for an occurrence of each key. A match is made only when the case and length of a key is the same as t... |

yppasswd(1) -- change login password in Network Information System (NIS)
|
|
yppasswd changes or installs a password associated with the login name in the Network Information System (NIS). The NIS password can be different from the one on your own machine. If name is omitted, it defaults to the name returned by getlogin() (see getlogin(3C)). yppasswd prompts for the old NIS password (even if it does not exist), then twice for the new one. The old password must be entered c... |

yppasswdd(1m) -- daemon for modifying Network Information Service passwd database
|
|
The yppasswdd daemon handles password change requests from yppasswd (see yppasswd(1)). It changes a password entry in passwd_file, which must be in the format defined by passwd(4). The change is made only if the old password provided by yppasswd matches the encrypted password of that entry. yppasswdd should be executed only on the master Network Information Service (NIS) server for the passwd data... |
|
yppoll(1m) -- query NIS server for information about NIS map
|
|
yppoll asks a Network Information Service (NIS) server process (see ypserv(1M)) to return the order number (the time in seconds when the map was built - time(2)) and master NIS server's host name for a NIS database named mapname. yppoll then writes them to standard output. If the server uses Version 1 NIS protocol, yppoll uses this older protocol to communicate with it. yppoll also prints the old... |
|
yppush(1m) -- force propagation of Network Information Service database
|
|
yppush copies a Network Information Service (NIS) map (database), mapname, from the map's master NIS server to each slave NIS server. It is usually executed only on the master NIS server by shell script ypmake which is run either after changes are made to one or more of the master's NIS databases or when the NIS databases are first created. See ypmake(1M) and ypinit(1M) for more information on t... |

ypserv(1m) -- Network Information Service (NIS) server, binder, and transfer processes
|
|
The Network Information Service (NIS) provides a simple network lookup service consisting of databases and processes. The databases are files in a directory tree rooted at /var/yp (see ypfiles(4)). The processes are /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypserv, the NIS database lookup server, and /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypbind, the NIS binder. Both ypserv and ypbind are daemon processes activated at system startup time w... |
|
ypset(1m) -- bind to particular Network Information Service server
|
|
ypset tells ypbind to get Network Information Service (NIS) services for the specified domain from the ypserv process running on server (see ypserv(1M) and ypbind(1M)). server is the NIS server that the NIS client binds to, and is specified as either a host name or an IP address. If server is down or is not running ypserv, this is not discovered until a local NIS client process tries to obtain a b... |
|
ypupdated(1m) -- server for changing NIS information
|
|
ypupdated is a daemon that updates information in the Network Information Service (NIS) databases. It is activated at system startup when the NIS_MASTER_SERVER variable is set to 1 in /etc/rc.config.d/namesvrs file on the NIS master server. ypupdated consults the file updaters in the directory /var/yp to determine which NIS maps should be updated and how to change them. By default, the daemon requ... |
|
ypwhich(1) -- list which host is Network Information System server or map master
|
|
ypwhich lists the host name of the Network Information System (NIS) server that supplies NIS services to a NIS client. It can also print the NIS server that is the master for mname. The mname can be either a mapname or a map nickname. A map nickname is a synonym by which a NIS map can be referenced. If invoked without arguments, ypwhich prints the host name of the NIS server serving the local mach... |
|
ypxfr(1m) -- transfer NIS database from server to local node
|
|
ypxfr copies a Network Information Service (NIS) map (database) to the local host from a NIS server by using the NIS services. A map can be copied regardless of its age, or it can be copied depending on whether its modification time (order number) is more recent than that of the local map. The ypxfr command creates a temporary map in directory /var/yp/domain where domain is the NIS domain. The ypx... |

ypxfrd(1m) -- Network Information Service (NIS) server, binder, and transfer processes
|
|
The Network Information Service (NIS) provides a simple network lookup service consisting of databases and processes. The databases are files in a directory tree rooted at /var/yp (see ypfiles(4)). The processes are /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypserv, the NIS database lookup server, and /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypbind, the NIS binder. Both ypserv and ypbind are daemon processes activated at system startup time w... |

zcat(1) -- compress and expand data
|
|
The following commands compress and uncompress files and directory subtrees as indicated: compress Reduce the size of the named files using adaptive Lempel-Ziv coding. If reduction is possible, each file is replaced by a new file of the same name with the suffix .Z added to indicate that it is a compressed file. Original ownership, modes, access, and modification times are preserved. If no file is... |
