UNAME(1)             INTERACTIVE UNIX System             UNAME(1)



          NAME
               uname - print name of current UNIX system

          SYNOPSIS
               uname [ -snrvma ]
               uname [ -S system name ]

          DESCRIPTION
               The uname command prints the current system name of the UNIX
               system on the standard output file.  It is mainly useful to
               determine which system one is using.  The options cause
               selected information returned by uname(2) to be printed:

               -s   print  system name (default).

               -n   print nodename (the nodename is the name by which the
                    system is known to a communications network).

               -r   print the operating system release.

               -v   print the operating system version.

               -m   print the machine hardware name.

               -a   print all the above information.

               On your computer, the system name and the nodename may be
               changed by specifying a system name argument to the -S
               option.  The system name argument is restricted to 8 charac-
               ters.  Only the super-user is allowed this capability.
