| 40 | .Nm |
| 41 | .Op Fl q |
| 42 | .Op Fl g Ar group_file |
| 43 | .Op Fl p Ar passwd_file |
| 44 | .Op Fl h Ar hosts_file |
| 45 | .Op Fl n Ar netid_file |
| 46 | .Op Fl d Ar domain |
| 47 | .Sh DESCRIPTION |
| 48 | .Nm Mknetid |
| 49 | processes the contents of the |
| 50 | .Xr group 5 , |
| 51 | .Xr passwd 5 , |
| 52 | .Xr hosts 5 |
| 53 | and |
| 54 | .Xr netid 5 |
| 55 | files into the format used to generate the |
| 56 | .Pa netid.byname |
| 57 | .Tn NIS |
| 58 | map. |
| 59 | This map is used to hold credential information for both users |
| 60 | and hosts in an operating system independent format. |
| 61 | .Pp |
| 62 | The |
| 63 | .Nm |
| 64 | command checks for duplicate occurrences of netids and filters |
| 65 | them out. |
| 66 | .Pp |
| 67 | The |
| 68 | .Nm |
| 69 | command prints its results on the standard output. |
| 70 | It is usually called |
| 71 | only by |
| 72 | .Pa /var/yp/Makefile |
| 73 | when rebuilding the |
| 74 | .Tn NIS |
| 75 | maps. |
| 76 | .Sh OPTIONS |
| 77 | The |
| 78 | .Nm |
| 79 | command supports the following options: |
| 80 | .Bl -tag -width indent |
| 81 | .It Fl q |
| 82 | Normally, |
| 83 | .Nm |
| 84 | prints a warning message when it encounters a duplicate netid. |
| 85 | This flag turns on 'quiet' mode, allowing the warnings to be |
| 86 | suppressed. |
| 87 | Other error messages may still be generated. |
| 88 | .It Fl g Ar group_file |
| 89 | Specify the location of the group information |
| 90 | file. |
| 91 | The compiled-in default is |
| 92 | .Pa /etc/group . |
| 93 | .It Fl p Ar passwd_file |
| 94 | Specify the location of the passwd information |
| 95 | file. |
| 96 | The compiled-in default is |
| 97 | .Pa /etc/passwd . |
| 98 | .It Fl h Ar hosts_file |
| 99 | Specify the location of the hosts database |
| 100 | file. |
| 101 | The compiled-in default is |
| 102 | .Pa /etc/hosts . |
| 103 | .It Fl n Ar netid_file |
| 104 | Specify the location of the netid information |
| 105 | file. |
| 106 | The compiled-in default is |
| 107 | .Pa /etc/netid . |
| 108 | Note that no error is generated if the netid database can't be |
| 109 | found. |
| 110 | The netid database is not likely to be present on most systems |
| 111 | until |
| 112 | .Tn Secure RPC |
| 113 | support is added to |
| 114 | .Dx . |
| 115 | .It Fl d Ar domain |
| 116 | By default, the |
| 117 | .Nm |
| 118 | command uses the system domainname when generating netid records. |
| 119 | If |
| 120 | the system domainname is not set, the domain must be specified on the |
| 121 | command line with the |
| 122 | .Fl d |
| 123 | flag. |
| 124 | If the domainname is set, the |
| 125 | .Fl d |
| 126 | flag may be used to override it. |

| 135 | to build the |
| 136 | .Tn NIS |
| 137 | databases |
