Name
       getnetgrent, setnetgrent, endnetgrent, innetgr - get network group entry

Syntax
       innetgr(netgroup, machine, user, domain)
       char *netgroup, *machine, *user, *domain;
       setnetgrent(netgroup)
       char *netgroup
       endnetgrent()
       getnetgrent(machinep, userp, domainp)
       char **machinep, **userp, **domainp;

Description
       The  routine accesses the file and checks to see if the specified input parameters match an entry in the file.  The routine returns 1 if it
       matches an entry, or 0 if it does not.  Any of the three strings; machine, user, or domain can be NULL, which signifies any string in  that
       position is valid.

       The  routine  returns  the  next  member of a network group.  After the call, will contain a pointer to a string containing the name of the
       machine part of the network group member, and similarly for userp and domainp.  If machinep,  userp  or	domainp  is  returned  as  a  NULL
       pointer,  it signifies any string is valid.  The routine allocates space for the name by using the routine.  This space is released when an
       call is made.  The routine returns 1 if it succeeds in obtaining another member of the network group, or 0 if it reaches  the  end  of  the
       group.

       The  routine  establishes  the network group from which will obtain members, and also restarts calls to from the beginning of the list.	If
       the previous call was to a different network group, an call is implied.

       The routine releases the space allocated during the calls.

NAME

       getnetgrent, setnetgrent, endnetgrent, innetgr - get network group entry

SYNOPSIS

       innetgr(netgroup, machine, user, domain)
       char *netgroup, *machine, *user, *domain;
       setnetgrent(netgroup)
       char *netgroup
       endnetgrent()
       getnetgrent(machinep, userp, domainp)
       char **machinep, **userp, **domainp;

DESCRIPTION

       The innetgr routine accesses the netgroup file and checks to see if the specified input parameters match an entry in the file.  The routine
       returns 1 if it matches an entry, or 0 if it does not.  Any of the three strings; machine, user, or domain can be NULL, which signifies any
       string in that position is valid.

       The getnetgrent routine returns the next member of a network group.  After the call, machinep will contain a pointer to a string containing
       the name of the machine part of the network group member, and similarly for userp and domainp.  If machinep, userp or domainp  is  returned
       as  a  NULL  pointer,  it signifies any string is valid.  The getnetgrent routine allocates space for the name by using the malloc routine.
       This space is released when an endnetgrent call is made.  The getnetgrent routine returns 1 if it succeeds in obtaining another	member	of
       the network group, or 0 if it reaches the end of the group.

       The  setnetgrent  routine  establishes the network group from which getnetgrent will obtain members, and also restarts calls to getnetgrent
       from the beginning of the list.	If the previous setnetgrent call was to a different network group, an endnetgrent call is implied.

       The endnetgrent routine releases the space allocated during the getnetgrent calls.

       Note that the netgroup file is distributed by NIS and exists in its original, readable form on the  NIS	master	server	only.	NIS  slave
       servers distribute copies of the netgroup maps created from the original on the master.
