NAME
       admsvcorder - manage search order for /etc/hosts, NIS, and DNS
       databases

SYNOPSIS
       admsvcorder -o set -1 first-database [ -2 second-database [ -3 third-
                 database ] ]

       admsvcorder -o get [ -qv ]

DESCRIPTION
       Admsvcorder manages the order that the /etc/hosts, Network
       Information Service, and Domain Name System resolver databases are
       searched for hostname-to-address resolution.

   Operations
       set       Set the order that the databases are searched.

       get       Get the order that the databases are searched.

   Options
       -1 first-database
                 first-database is the database that will be searched first
                 in hostname-to-address resolution.

       -2 second-database
                 second-database is the database that will be searched
                 second in hostname-to-address resolution.  If unspecified
                 then only the first database will be searched.

       -3 third-database
                 third-database is the database that will be searched third
                 in hostname-to-address resolution.  If unspecified then
                 only the first and second databases will be searched.

       -q        "Quiet."  Produce an unformatted listing (i.e. no headers,
                 fields delimited by a single space).

       -v        "Verbose."  Produce a formatted listing with headers and
                 aligned columns.  This is the default.

       admsvcorder expects the databases to be specified with the following
       convention:

       NIS or nis for the Network Information Service (formerly Yellow
       Pages) database.

       EHOSTS or ehosts for the local /etc/hosts database.

       RES or res for the Domain Name System resolver.

FILES
       /etc/svcorder  Search order file.

OUTPUT
       The get operation writes its output to stdout.

       The verbose form of the operation outputs information in aligned
       columns with column headers.

       The quiet form of the operation suppresses headers and each database
       is printed in the order that it is searched on separate lines.

DIAGNOSTICS
   Warnings
       None.

   Errors
        -  The set operation is requested, and the -1 option is not
           specified.

        -  The set operation is requested, and the -3 option is specified,
           but the -2 option is not specified.

   Exit Codes

NOTES
       Access to the set operation is granted based upon the write access to
       /etc/svcorder.  Generally, only the system administrator has this
       access.  Access to the get operation is granted based upon the read
       access to /etc/svcorder.  Generally, all have this access.
