  NAME

    unadv - Unadvertise a Remote File Sharing resource

  SYNOPSIS

    unadv resource

  DESCRIPTION

    The unadv command unadvertises a Remote File Sharing (RFS) resource, which
    is the advertised symbolic name of a local directory, by removing it from
    the advertised information on the domain-name server.  The unadv command
    prevents subsequent remote mounts of that resource.  It does not affect
    continued access through existing remote or local mounts.

    An administrator at a server can unadvertise only those resources that
    physically reside on the local machine.  A domain administrator can
    unadvertise any resource in the domain from the primary name server by
    specifying resource name as domain.resource.  (A domain administrator
    should only unadvertise another hosts resources to clean up the domain
    advertisement table when that host goes down.  Unadvertising another
    host's resource changes the domain advertisement table, but not the host
    advertisement table.)

    The unadv command can be used only by the superuser.

  EXAMPLES

    To unadvertise resource CALENDAR:

    unadv CALENDAR


  DIAGNOSTICS

    If resource is not found in the advertised information, an error message
    will be sent to stderr.

  EXIT VALUES

    The unadv command exits with a value of 1 if it encounters a problem.
