SYNOPSIS
dnetnml [options]Options:
[-dVh]
DESCRIPTION
dnetnml
is a daemon that serves incoming management requests from remote systems, usually
NCP in the case of VMS and RSX. It is recommended that the daemon be run from dnetd
by adding the following line to /etc/dnetd.conf:
NML 19 N nobody dnetnml
Currently it only serves a subset of information requests. These are (in NCP terms):
SHOW KNOWN NODES
SHOW ADJACENT NODES
SHOW EXEC CHAR
SHOW KNOWN OBJECTS
SHOW KNOWN LINKS
Note that for SHOW KNOWN OBJECTS to work, /etc/dnetd.conf needs to be readable by
the daemon user (usually 'nobody') or it will return a Privilege Violation. There is no
sensitive data in this file so it's quite OK to set the permissions to 0644. Though
this is not the default.
OPTIONS
- -d
- Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.
- -v
- Verbose. The more of these there are the more verbose dnetnml will be. Don't use more than one for normal operation because it will seriously impair performance.
- -h -?
- Displays help for using the command.
- -V
- Show the version of dnetnml.
