NAME

dce_intro - Introduction to the general DCE administration tools

DESCRIPTION

This section describes publicly accessible DCE administration commands that are general to DCE rather than specific to a particular component.  These commands are as follows:

csrcThe csrc utility is the code set registry compiler, which builds a DCE character and code set registry on a host from a source file supplied by a cell administrator.  Administrators run the csrc utility when they are building an "internationalized" DCE cell. 

dce_configThe dce_config shell command invokes a menu-driven interface that installs, configures, and starts up DCE.  The dce_config command displays a hierarchy of menus and invokes individual installation and configuration routines, according to users’ menu selections. 

dcecpThe dcecp control program is the primary DCE administration interface, providing remote access to routine DCE administrative functions. 

dcedThe DCE host daemon is a process that provides services for the local host, and is also the server used by remote applications to access these host services. 

getcellnameReturns the name of the local cell. 

getipReturns the IP address for a given machine name.
