fdetach(1M)                                                     fdetach(1M)

NAME
     fdetach - detach a name from a STREAMS-based file descriptor

SYNOPSIS
     fdetach path

DESCRIPTION
     The fdetach command detaches a STREAMS-based file descriptor from a
     name in the file system. path is the path name of the object in the
     file system name space, which was previously attached [see
     fattach(3C)]. The user must be the owner of the file or a user with
     the appropriate privileges. All subsequent operations on path will
     operate on the file system node and not on the STREAMS file. The per-
     missions and status of the node are restored to the state the node was
     in before the STREAMS file was attached to it.

SEE ALSO
     fattach(3C), fdetach(3C), streamio(7).
