dname(8)                            CLIX                            dname(8)



  NAME

    dname - Displays Remote File Sharing domain and network names

  SYNOPSIS

    dname [-D domain] [-N netspec] [-dna]

  FLAGS

    -dna        Enables any user to display the domain name (-d), the network
                name (-n), or both (-a).

    -D domain   Allows only a user with root permission to set the domain name
                for the host.  The domain must consist of no more than 14
                characters, consisting of any combination of letters
                (uppercase and lowercase), digits, hyphens (-), and
                underscores (_).

    -N netspec  Allows users with root permission to set the network
                specification used for Remote File Sharing.  (The value of
                netspec is the network device name, relative to the /dev
                directory.  For example, the STARLAN NETWORK uses starlan.)

  DESCRIPTION

    The dname command displays or defines a host's Remote File Sharing (RFS)
    domain name or the network used by RFS as transport provider.

    When dname is used to change a domain name, the host's password is
    removed.  The administrator will be prompted for a new password the next
    time RFS is started (see rfstart).

    If dname is used with no flags, it will default to dname -d.

  EXAMPLES

    To display the domain name used by RFS on stdout, use dname without flags:

    dname

    If no domain name is set, an error message to that effect will be
    displayed.

  CAUTIONS

    You cannot use the -N or -D flags while RFS is running.

  EXIT VALUES

    The dname command exits with a nonzero if it fails.
