NAME
fnbind − Bind a reference to an FNS name
SYNOPSIS
fnbind [-s] [-v] [-L] name new_name
fnbind
-r [-s] [-v] new_name [-O
| -U] ref_type { [-O | -U]
addr_type
[-c | -x] addr_contents}...
DESCRIPTION
The fnbind utility binds the reference named by name to the name new_name. The second synopsis of fnbind (uses the -r option) allows the binding of new_name to the reference constructed using arguments supplied in the command line.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
|
-s |
Bind to new_name even if it is already bound. If this option is omitted, fnbind fails if new_name is already bound. | ||
|
-v |
Display the reference being bound to new_name. | ||
|
-L |
Create an XFN link using name and bind it to new_name. | ||
|
-r |
Create a reference using ref_type as the reference’s type, and one or more pairs of addr_type and addr_contents as the reference’s list of addresses, and bind this reference to new_name. Unless the -O or -U options are used, FN_ID_STRING is used as the identifier format for ref_type and addr_type. Unless the -c or -x options are used, addr_contents is stored as an XDR-encoded string. | ||
|
-c |
Store addr_contents in the given form; do not use XDR-encoding. | ||
|
-x |
addr_contents specifies a hexadecimal string. Convert it to its hexidecimal representation and store it; do not use XDR-encoding. | ||
|
-O |
The identifier format is FN_ID_ISO_OID_STRING, an ASN.1 dot-separated integer list string. | ||
|
-U |
The identifier format is FN_ID_DCE_UUID, a DCE UUID in string form. |
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Binding a service to a printer
The command
example% fnbind -s thisorgunit/service/printer thisorgunit/service/pr
binds the name thisorgunit/service/pr to the reference named by thisorgunit/service/printer. Any reference bound to thisorgunit/service/pr is overwritten.
Example 2: Binding to an XFN link
The command
example% fnbind -L thisorgunit/service/printer thisorgunit/service/pr
binds the name thisorgunit/service/pr to the XFN link constructed using the name thisorgunit/service/printer .
Example 3: Binding to an address type
The command
example%
fnbind -r thisorgunit/service/calendar SUNW_cal \
SUNW_cal_deskset_onc staff@exodus
binds the name thisorgunit/service/calendar to the reference with reference type SUNW_cal and address type SUNW_cal_deskset_onc, and address contents of staff@exodus.
