Trusted Solaris 8 Roadmap

Accessing Trusted Solaris Man Pages

The man pages for the Trusted Solaris environment reside in three different directories. For the man command to find all the Trusted Solaris man pages, your man page path needs to be set to find the three directories in the following list, along with any other directories where man pages are installed at your site.

For C shell users, the MANPATH variable can be set individually by users in their shell initialization files or globally by administrators in site-wide shell initialization files in /etc/skel (or alternate skeleton directory) to be copied into the home directories for all users. To set the MANPATH variable, enter:


trusted% setenv MANPATH="/usr/dt/man:/usr/openwin/man:/usr/man:$MANPATH"

To check a system's current MANPATH setting, enter:


echo $MANPATH

This should display the three paths mentioned above and any other paths to man pages at your site.
