NAME

fnlookup − display the reference bound to an FNS name

SYNOPSIS

fnlookup [ −ALv ] composite_name

DESCRIPTION

fnlookup displays the binding of composite_name.

OPTIONS

−A Consult the authoritative source for information. 

−L If the composite name is bound to an XFN link, display the reference that the link is bound to.  Without the −L option, fnlookup displays the XFN link. 

−v Display the binding in detail.  For onc_fn_∗ references, this option is useful to derive the name of the NIS+ table that stores the reference for composite_name and a string representation of the reference, if applicable. 

OPERANDS

The following operand is supported:

composite_name An FNS named object. 

EXAMPLES

In the following example, the command

eg% fnlookup user/jsmith/service/calendar

shows the reference to which the name user/jsmith/service/calendar, that refers to the calendar of user jsmith, is bound. 

In the next example, the command

eg% fnlookup user/jsmith/service

shows the reference to which the name user/jsmith/service, that refers to the service context of user jsmith, is bound.  If this is bound to an XFN link, then

eg% fnlookup −L user/jsmith/service

displays the reference to which this link is bound.
