NAME [Toc] [Back]
nisrm - remove NIS+ objects from the namespace
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
nisrm [ -if ] name...
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The nisrm command removes NIS+ objects named name from the NIS+
namespace.
This command will fail if the NIS+ master server is not running.
Options [Toc] [Back]
-i Interactive mode. Like the system rm(1) command, the nisrm
command will ask for confirmation prior to removing an object. If
the name specified by name is a non-fully qualified name, this
option is forced on. This prevents the removal of unexpected
objects.
-f Force. The removal is attempted, and if it fails for permission
reasons, an nischmod(1) is attempted and the removal retried. If
the command fails, it fails silently.
Notes [Toc] [Back]
This command will not remove directories (see nisrmdir(1)) nor will it
remove non-empty tables (see nistbladm(1)).
EXAMPLES [Toc] [Back]
Remove the objects foo, bar, and baz from the namespace:
nisrm foo bar baz
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES [Toc] [Back]
Environment Variables
NIS_PATH If this variable is set and the NIS+ name is not fully
qualified, each directory specified will be searched
until the object is found (see nisdefaults(1)).
RETURN VALUE [Toc] [Back]
nisrm returns 0 on success and 1 on failure.
WARNINGS [Toc] [Back]
HP-UX 11i Version 2 is the last HP-UX release on which NIS+ is
supported.
LDAP is the recommended replacement for NIS+. HP fully supports the
industry standard naming services based on LDAP.
