Syntax Rules for the sysidcfg File
You can use two types of keywords in the sysidcfg file:
independent and dependent. Dependent keywords are guaranteed to be unique
only within independent keywords. A dependent keyword exists only when it
is identified with its associated independent keyword.
In this example, name_service is the independent
keyword, while domain_name and name_server are
the dependent keywords:
name_service=NIS {domain_name=marquee.central.example.com
name_server=connor(192.168.112.3)}

Example
|
Independent keywords can be listed in any order.
|
pointer=MS-S
display=ati {size=15-inch}
|
Keywords are not case sensitive.
|
TIMEZONE=US/Central
terminal=sun-cmd
|
Enclose all dependent keywords in curly braces ({}) to tie them to their
associated independent keyword.
|
name_service=NIS
{domain_name=marquee.central.example.com
name_server=connor(192.168.112.3)}
|
You can optionally enclosed values in single (`) or double quotes (“).
|
network_interface='none'
|
For all keywords except the network_interface keyword,
only one instance of a keyword is valid. However, if you specify the keyword
more than once, only the first instance of the keyword is used.

name_service=NIS
name_service=DNS
