MICNET(F)                            UNIX System V



     Name
          micnet - the Micnet default commands file


     Syntax
          /etc/default/micnet


     Description
          The micnet file  lists  the  system  commands  that  may  be
          executed  through  the remote command.  The file is required
          for each system in a  Micnet  network.   Whenever  a  remote
          command is received through the network, the Micnet programs
          search the micnet file for the system command specified with
          the  remote  command.   If  found,  the command is executed.
          Otherwise, the command is ignored and an  error  message  is
          returned to the system which issued the remote command.

          The file may contain one or more lines.  If all commands may
          be executed, only the line

               executeall

          is required in the file.  Otherwise, the  commands  must  be
          listed  individually.   A  line  that  defines an individual
          command has the form:

               command=commandpath

          Command is the command name to  be  specified  in  a  remote
          command.  Commandpath is the full pathname of the command on
          the specified system.  The  equal  sign  (=)  separates  the
          command and commandpath.  For example, the line:

               cat=/bin/cat

          defines the command name cat (used in the remote command) to
          refer to the system command cat in the /bin directory.

          When executeall is set, commands are sought in a  series  of
          default  directories.   Initially,  the directories are /bin
          and /usr/bin.  The default  directories  can  be  explicitly
          defined in the file by including a line of the form:

               execpath=PATH=directory[:directory]...

          The first part of the  line,  execpath=PATH=,  is  required.
          Each  directory  must  be  a  valid  pathname.  The colon is
          required to separate directories.  For example, the line:

               execpath=PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bobf/bin

          sets  the  default  directories  to  /bin,   /usr/bin,   and
          /usr/bobf/bin.

     Notes
          The rcp command cannot be  executed  from  a  remote  system
          unless  the  micnet  file contains either executeall, or the
          line

               rcp=/usr/bin/rcp


     Value Added

          Santa Cruz Operation.
