Name
nbplkup, nbprgstr, nbpunrgstr — tools for accessing the NBP database
Synopsis
nbplkup
nbprgstr [-A address] [-m Mac charset] [-p port] obj:type@zone
nbpunrgstr [-A address] [-m Mac charset] obj:type@zone
Description
nbprgstr registers nbpname with atalkd(8), at the given port. nbpunrgstr informs atalkd that nbpname is no longer to be advertised.
nbplkup displays up to maxresponses (default 1000) entities registered on the AppleTalk internet. nbpname is parsed by nbp_name(3). An `=‘ for the object or type matches anything, and an `*‘ for zone means the local zone. The default values are taken from the NBPLKUP environment variable, parsed as an nbpname.
