NAME

netidYP network credential file

DESCRIPTION

Files in netid format are rare. One lives in the YP map netid.byname. The format is rather simple. Each row consists of two items: a key and a value. When created by mknetid(8) there are three types of records.

The first type is information about which GIDs a UID has:

unix.< uid>@< yp-domain>< uid>:< gid>,< gid>

The second type contains information about hosts:

unix.< hostname>@< yp-domain> 0:< hostname>

The third type refers to records from a netid file other than the two types above.

FILES

/etc/netid
for lines not generated automatically by mknetid(8)

EXAMPLES

A configuration file might look like the following:

unix.10714@kaka 10714:400,10 
unix.jodie@kaka 0:jodie
