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



     NAME
          nbpremove - unregister an entity name

     SYNOPSIS
          nbpremove -O object -T type [ -Z zone ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Nbpremove uses the AppleTalk Name Binding Protocol (NBP) to
          remove entity names that are registered with the local
          nbpd(1m).  It is usually used to remove the name of a
          service that has exited irregularly (i.e., core dump).  If
          the removal is successful, the pid of the process that
          registered the name is printed.  If the -Z zone option is
          given, the removal will be for the specified AppleTalk zone;
          otherwise, the lookup will be in the local zone.

     RETURN VALUE
          Nbpremove returns the value of the nbp_remove call, which is
          either a negative error number or the pid of the process
          that registered the name.

     DIAGNOSTICS
          Names table is locked, try later.
                                        Another process has the names
                                        table locked.

          Could not allocate space.     The nbp_remove call could not
                                        malloc space to store the
                                        names.

          Duplicate entry found.        More than one entry of this
                                        type was found in the names
                                        table.

          Entity not found in names table.
                                        The entity is not in the local
                                        names table.  If it appears in
                                        an atservers(1) listing, it is
                                        probably registered from a
                                        different host.
