     ATSERVERS(1)      K-Talk by Xinet (9/29/94 8.1)      ATSERVERS(1)



     NAME
          atservers - print AppleTalk services

     SYNOPSIS
          atservers [ -v ] [ -w ] [ -x ] [ -a ] [ -O object ] [ -T
          type ] [ -Z zone ] [ -N net.node ] [ number ]

     DESCRIPTION
          The atservers utility uses the AppleTalk Name Binding
          Protocol (NBP) to look up all named entities on the UNIX
          host's AppleTalk network.  The flags are defined as follows:

          -v   produces a more readable (but less parseable) output.

          number
               specifies the number of entities atservers will look
               up.  If no number is specified, atservers will look for
               up to 20 entities per zone.  If there are more entities
               in a zone than number, a  '[...]' (or a longer message
               in verbose mode) will be printed at the end of the
               listings for that zone.  In nonverbose mode, atservers
               prints any entities it finds (in the format
               object:type@zone), along with node information (in the
               format [net/node/socket #] in decimal).

          -x   prints the node information in hexadecimal rather than
               decimal.

          -Z zone
               specifies that the lookup will be for the AppleTalk
               zone; otherwise, the lookup will be in the local zone.

           -T type
               specifies that  the lookup will be for a specific type
               of entity.

           -O object
               specifies that the lookup will be for the entity (such
               as a machine name) identified as object.

          -a   indicates that the lookup should occur in all known
               zones.

          -w   causes atservers to wait longer for responses.  This is
               mainly useful for long-haul networks, where response
               times are slow.   If the -w flag changes the output on
               a local net, it usually means there are network
               configuration problems.

          -N net.node
               specifies that only services registered at the address
               net.node are found.  This flag causes the -Z -T and -O

               options to be ignored.

     DIAGNOSTICS
          No entities in zone "zonename".
                                        No entities in the specified
                                        zone (or as specified by the
                                        options) were found by the
                                        lookup operation.

          More entities may exist in zone "zonename"...:
                                        specify a larger number
                                        argument to see the additional
                                        entities.

          [...]:                        More entities may exist in the
                                        zone.  You must specify a
                                        larger number argument to see
                                        the additional entities.
