NAME

intro − introduction to Open Network Computing (ONC) ­commands

DESCRIPTION

This section describes publicly accessible ONC utilities in alphabetical order. 

SEE ALSO

“INTERACTIVE NFS Administrator’s Reference Manual” (the Section 1M manual entries) for ONC administration ­commands.

DIAGNOSTICS

Upon termination, each command returns 2 bytes of status data: one supplied by the system giving the cause for termination and (in the case of “normal” termination) one supplied by the program (see wait(2) and exit(2)). The former byte is 0 for normal termination. The latter is customarily 0 for successful execution; a nonzero value indicates troubles such as erroneous parameters, bad or inaccessible data, or some other inability to cope with the task at hand. This datum is called variously “exit code,” “exit status,” or “return code”; it is described only where special conventions are involved.
