NAME

ypcat - print values in a NIS database

SYNOPSIS

ypcat [-kx] [-d ypdomain] mname

DESCRIPTION

The ypcat command prints out values in the NIS name service map
specified by mname, which may be either a map name or a map nickname.
Since ypcat uses the NIS network services, no NIS server is
specified.


Refer to ypfiles(5) for an overview of the NIS name service.

OPTIONS

-k
Display the keys for those maps in which the values
are null or the key is not part of the value. None of
the maps derived from files that have an ASCII version
in /etc fall into this class.


-d ypdomain
Specify a domain other than the default domain.


-x
Display map nicknames.
