NAME

       nbplkup, nbprgstr, nbpunrgstr - access NBP database

SYNOPSIS

       nbplkup [-r maxresponses] [-A address] [-m maccodepage] nbpname

       nbprgstr [-A address] [-p port] [-m maccodepage] nbpname

       nbpunrgstr [-A address] [-m maccodepage] nbpname

DESCRIPTION

       nbprgstr  registers  nbpname  with atalkd(8), at the given port. nbpun-
       rgstr informs atalkd that nbpname is no longer to be advertised.

       nbplkup displays up to maxresponses (default 1000) entities  registered
       on  the  AppleTalk  internet. nbpname is parsed by nbp_name(3).  An ‘=’
       for the object or type matches anything, and an ‘*’ for zone means  the
       local  zone.  The default values are taken from the NBPLKUP environment
       variable, parsed as an nbpname.
