NAME
ofmipname - build a name-address database for ofmipd
SYNTAX
ofmipname name.cdb name.tmp
DESCRIPTION
ofmipname reads a name-address table from its standard
input. It converts the table into a database suited for
quick access by ofmipd.
ofmipname writes the database to name.tmp; it then moves
name.tmp to name.cdb. name.tmp and name.cdb must be on
the same filesystem.
If there is a problem creating name.tmp, ofmipname com
plains and leaves name.cdb alone.
The database format is portable across machines.
INPUT FORMAT
The name-address table is a series of lines of the form
key:name:address: (including the final colon). If ofmipd
is given key (after hostname rewriting) as the return path
for a message, it will replace the return path with
address, eliminate any existing From field in the message,
and insert a new From field showing name and address.
ofmipname ignores any line beginning with #.
- For example:
- # From: "Joe Shmoe" <J.Shmoe@sun.af.mil>
joe@sun.af.mil:Joe Shmoe:J.Shmoe@sun.af.mil:
