List netware bindery objects

Usage

nwbols [-h] [-S server] [-U user name] [{-P password | -n}] [-C] [-t type] [-o pattern] [-v]

Overview

nwbols lists the specified NetWare Bindery Objects visible for the user.

nwbols looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information. Please note that the access permissions of $HOME/.nwclient MUST be 600 for security reasons.

Options

-h

-h is used to print out a short help text.

-S server

server is the name of the server you want to use.

-U user

user is the user name to use for login.

-P password

password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwbols prompts for a password.

-n

-n should be given if no password is required for the login.

-C

By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C.

-t type

You can restrict the objects listed by specifying the type of the objects to be listed. type must be given as a decimal number.

-o pattern

Specifying a pattern is another way to restrict the objects listed. Please note that this pattern is evaluated by the NetWare server. grep would be a better candidate for complex patterns.

-v

By default, the object's name, its ID and its type are listed by nwbols. In the verbose mode, activated by -v, the object flags, its security byte and the properties flag is also listed.
