Viewing the Name Service Policy Using admtblloc

This example shows how to display the name service policy using the admtblloc command:


$ admtblloc
Name           Name Service  Path
Aliases            NIS+
Hosts              NIS+
Group              NIS+
Netgroup           NIS+
Protocols          NIS+
Bootparams         NONE
Auto.home          NIS+
RPC                NIS+
Timezone           NIS+
Netmasks           NIS+
Ethers             NIS+
Passwd             NIS+
Services           NIS+
Networks           NIS+
Locale             NIS+

In this example output,

Name

Is the name of the configuration file. 

Name Service

Specifies the name service used to access the configuration file. 

Path

(Optional) Specifies the path to the ASCII source file on NIS servers in the NIS name service. The default is the /etc directory.

By default, the name service policy displayed by the admtblloc command is for the name service the current host is a member of. To display the name service policy for a different name service, specify the name service context.

This example shows how to display the name service policy for the NONE or local /etc files name service context domain using the admtblloc command:


$ admtblloc -c NONE
Name           Name Service  Path
Aliases        NONE
Hosts          NONE
Group          NONE
Auto_home      NONE
Netgroup       NONE
Protocols      NONE
Bootparams     NONE
RPC            NONE
Timezone       NONE
Netmasks       NONE
Ethers         NONE
Passwd         NONE
Services       NONE
Networks       NONE
Locale         NONE

In this example,

-c

Specifies the name service context. 

NONE 

Is the local /etc files name service.

You can also use the admtblloc command to display the name service policy for a specified configuration file. This example shows how to display the name service policy for the hosts file in the default name service:


$ admtblloc Hosts
Hosts          NIS+
Note -

The configuration file names are case-sensitive.
