NAME
at_nveshow - display all NVE's registered at this node
SYNOPSIS
atnveshow [-f network]
DESCRIPTION
atnveshow queries the Name Binding Protocol daemon for all
Network Visible Entries (NVE's) registered at the user's
node on the network network. Since it is possible to have
multiple AppleTalk networks attached to a system, this
utility needs to know the path in the file system to the
desired network. Using
-f network
will select the network network. For example:
-f /dev/appletalk2
will choose the second AppleTalk network that is attached to
the system. If -f - is used, then standard input will be
used.
If the -f flag option is not used, there is a sequence of
other locations which are looked at for the network path.
First, if there is an environmental variable ATNETWORK, its
value will be used as the path to the desired network.
If no ATNETWORK variable exists, then the environmental
variable ATDIR is used as a path to a directory that should
contain a file called .appletalkrc. The first line in that
file is the path to the desired network.
If no ATDIR variable is found, the user's home directory is
searched for the the .appletalkrc file.
If all of the above attempts fail, then the default path is
used, /dev/appletalk.
Information about the entries is displayed in a table
format, with one line per entry, containing the object, type
and zone names, net, node and socket numbers in hexadecimal
format, ID of the process that registered the NVE, and the
registration time, respectively (see below).
EXAMPLE
atnveshow
displays the following table:
OBJECT TYPE ZONE NET ND SK PID REGISTERED
at_pftd1 Apple_PFT * 1234 40 80 21 851104 16:19:18
Writer2 LaserWriter * 1234 40 80 60 851104 17:31:13
where a zone field of * designates the current zone.
