NWBPSET(1)
NAME
nwbpset - Create a bindery property or set its value
SYNOPSIS
nwbpset [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ]
DESCRIPTION
nwbpset Reads a property specification from the standard input and creates and sets the corresponding property. The format is determined by
the output of 'nwbpvalues -c'. nwbpset will hopefully become an important part of the bindery management suite of ncpfs, together with
'nwbpvalues -c'. See util/nwbpsecurity for an example.
- As another example, look at the following command line:
- nwbpvalues -t 1 -o supervisor -p user_defaults -c |\
sed '2s/.*/ME/'|\
sed '3s/.*/LOGIN_CONTROL/'|\
nwbpset - With this command, the property user_defaults of the user object 'supervisor' is copied into the property login_control of the user object 'me'.
nwbpvalues -t 1 -o me -p login_control -c |\
sed '9s/.*/ff/'|\
nwbpset- This command disables the user object me.
- Feel free to contribute other examples!
- nwbpset 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, nwbpset 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.
