Linux / Unix main page About nismatch and nisgrep Utilities for searching NIS+ tables. Syntax nismatch [-A] [-c] [-h] [-M] [-o] [-P] [-v] [-s sep] key tablename nisgrep [-A] [-c] [-h] [-i] [-M] [-o] [-v] [-s sep] keypat tablename
| -A | All data. Return the data within the table and all of the data in tables in the initial table's concatenation path. |
| -c | Print only a count of the number of entries that matched the search criteria. |
| -h | Display a header line before the matching entries that contains the names of the table's columns. |
| -i | Ignore upper/lower case distinction during comparisons. |
| -M | Master server only. Send the lookup to the master server of the named data. This guarantees that the most up to date information is seen at the possible expense that the master server may be busy. |
| -o | Display the internal representation of the matching NIS+ object(s). |
| -P | Follow concatenation path. Specify that the lookup should follow the concatenation path of a table if the initial search is unsuccessful. |
| -v | Verbose. Do not suppress the output of binary data when displaying matching entries. Without this option binary data is displayed as the string *BINARY*. |
| -s sep | This option specifies the character to use to separate the table columns. If no character is
specified, the default separator for the table is used. |
