nwfstime
NWFSTIME(1) nwfstime NWFSTIME(1)
NAME
nwfstime - Display / Set a NetWare server's date and time
SYNOPSIS
nwfstime [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -s ]
DESCRIPTION
nwfstime displays a NetWare server's date and time. You can also set a NetWare server's date and time from the local time.
OPTIONS
-h
With -h nwfstime prints a little help text.
-S server
is the name of the server you want to use.
-U user
user is the user name to use for login. To set the server's time, you need supervisor privileges.
-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, nwfstime
prompts for a password.
-n
-n should be given if no password is required for the login. As you need supervisor privileges for setting the date and time, this
option is probably not used very often.
-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.
-s
With -s, nwfstime sets the file server's date and time according to the local date and time.
