nisrm - remove NIS+ objects from the namespace
nisrm [ -if ]
name...
SUNWnisu
The nisrm command removes NIS+ objects
named name from the NIS+
namespace.
This command will fail if the NIS+
master server is not running.
- -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, a nischmod(1)
is attempted and the removal retried. If the command fails, it fails silently.
Remove the objects foo, bar, and baz from the namespace.
- example%
nisrm foo bar baz
- 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)
).
nisrm returns
0 on success and 1 on failure.
