dname(1M)        UNIX System V(Remote File Sharing Utilities)         dname(1M)


NAME
      dname - print Remote File Sharing domain and network names

SYNOPSIS
      dname [-D domain] [-N netspeclist] [-dna]

DESCRIPTION
      dname prints or defines a host's Remote File Sharing domain name or the
      network(s) used by Remote File Sharing as transport provider(s).  When
      used with d, n, or a options, dname can be run by any user to print the
      domain name, transport provider name(s), or both.  Only a user with root
      permission can use the -D domain option to set the domain name for the
      host or -N netspeclist to set the network specification used for Remote
      File Sharing.  netspeclist is a comma-separated list of transport
      providers (tp1,tp2,...).  The value of each transport provider is the
      network device name, relative to the /dev directory.  For example, the
      STARLAN NETWORK uses starlan.

      domain must consist of no more than 14 characters, consisting of any
      combination of letters (upper and lower case), digits, hyphens (-), and
      underscores (_).

      When dname is used to change a domain name, the host's password is
      removed.  The administrator will be prompted for a new password the next
      time Remote File Sharing is started [rfstart(1M)].

      If dname is used with no options, it will default to dname -d.

NOTES
      You cannot use the -N or -D options while Remote File Sharing is running.
