YPWHICH(1) BSD General Commands Manual YPWHICH(1)NAMEypwhich — return hostname of YP server of map master
SYNOPSISypwhich [-d domain] [[-t] -m [mname] | host]
ypmatch -x
DESCRIPTION
Ypmatch tells which YP server supplies YP services to a client, or which
is the master for a map. If invoked without arguments, it gives the YP
server for the local machine. If host is specified, that machine is
queried to find out which YP server it is using.
The options are as follows:
-d domain
Specify a domain other than the default domain.
-t Inhibit translation of map nicknames to their corresponding map
names.
-m [mname]
Find the master YP server for the named map. No host may be
specified with the -m option. Mname can be a map name or nick‐
name. If mname is ommitted, ypwhich will produce a list of
available maps.
-x Display the map nickname table.
