nmcontrol [ hostname ]

DESCRIPTION

nmcontrol can be used to obtain operating statistics from an operating network server , set or get operating parameters and debugging switches, and dump the debugging log. 
 
nmcontrol makes contact with the network server by looking up the special port for the LOGSTAT service in the name server. 
 
hostname represents the host on which the network to control is running.  It is prompted for if not supplied on the command line. 
 
nmcontrol is interactive; all commands can be listed by entering ?  or h at the prompt.  Commands can be in upper or lower case; several commands can be typed on the same line, provided that spaces are used to disambiguate the end of string arguments.
