Synopsis

nbplkup

nbprgstr [-A address ] [-m Mac charset ] [-p port ] obj:type@zone

nbpunrgstr [-A address ] [-m Mac charset ] obj:type@zone

Description

nbprgstr registers nbpname with atalkd (8), at the given port . nbpunrgstr informs atalkd that nbpname is no longer to be advertised.

nbplkup displays up to maxresponses (default 1000) entities registered on the AppleTalk internet. nbpname is parsed by nbp_name (3). An ‘ = ’ for the object or type matches anything, and an ‘ * ’ for zone means the local zone. The default values are taken from the NBPLKUP environment variable, parsed as an nbpname .
