     MICNET(M)                XENIX System V                 MICNET(M)



     Name
          micnet - The Micnet default commands file.

     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]...

     MICNET(M)                XENIX System V                 MICNET(M)



          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.

     Files
          /etc/default/micnet

     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
