NAME

       fdetach - detach a STREAMS-based file descriptor from a filename

SYNOPSIS

       path

DESCRIPTION

       The  command detaches or disassociates a file descriptor for an open STREAMS device or pipe from its filename in the file system.  The path
       argument is the path that was previously associated with the file descriptor by the function.

       Operations on path will subsequently affect the file system node, not the STREAMS device or pipe.  The permissions and status of  the  node
       are  returned  to  the  state that they were in before the STREAMS device or pipe was attached.	Any other paths that the STREAMS device or
       pipe may be attached to are not affected.

       To successfully issue the command, the user must be superuser or must be the owner of the file and have write permission.

RETURN VALUE

       returns 0 (zero) on success.  If fails, it returns 1 and prints a message to

NAME

       fdetach - Detaches a STREAMS-based file descriptor from a file

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/fdetach path

DESCRIPTION

       The  fdetach command dissociates a STREAMS-based file descriptor from a file, which is pointed to by the path parameter.  The STREAMS-based
       file descriptor was associatedwith the file by a prior program call, typically the fattach()|*O function.

       When this cmmand is successful, all path names that named the attached STREAMS file to again name the file to which the	STREAMS  file  was
       attached.   All	subsequent  oprations  on  the	file  pointed to by the path parameter are performed on the underlying file and not on the
       STREAMS file.

       The permissions and status of the node are returned to the state that they were in before the STREAMS file was attached.  Any  other  paths
       that the STREAMS file may be attached to are not affected.

       To  successfully  issue the fdetach command, the user must have the appropriate permissions or must be the owner of the file and have write
       permission.

EXAMPLES

       To detach the file descriptor for the STREAMS file /tmp/streamfile from its associated file system node, enter: fdetach /tmp/streamfile
