ypcat prints out the values of all keys from the NIS database
specified by
mapname, which may be a map name or a map
nickname.
The options are as follows:
-
-
- -b
num_retry
- Do not wait infinite time for the ypserver to come up.
Retry only the specified number of times. See
yp_setbindtries(3)
for explanation. The valid range is limited from 0 to 65535 by this
program.
-
-
- -d
domainname
- Specify a domain other than the default domain.
-
-
- -k
- Display map keys. This option is useful with maps in which
the values are null or the key is not part of the value.
-
-
- -s
- When printing the value of a key, compress all whitespace
characters to a single space. Useful when values contain newlines.
-
-
- -t
- Inhibit translation of map nicknames to their corresponding
map names.
-
-
- -x
- Display the map nickname table, found in
/var/yp/nicknames. A built-in default translation table
is used if /var/yp/nicknames does not exist (see
nicknames(5) for
details).
