You can use these options to display all default values or any subset of them:
To display all values in verbose format, type the nisdefaults command without arguments.
master% nisdefaults Principal Name : topadmin.doc.com. Domain Name : doc.com. Host Name : rootmaster.doc.com. Group Name : salesboss Access Rights : ----rmcdr---r--- Time to live : 12:00:00:00:00 Search Path : doc.com.
To display all values in terse format, add the -a option.
To display a subset of the values, use the appropriate options. The values are displayed in terse mode. For example, to display the rights and search path defaults in terse mode, type the following.
rootmaster% nisdefaults -rs ----rmcdr---r--- doc.com.
To display a subset of the values in verbose mode, add the -v flag.
