rpccp_add_entry

add entry(1m)															     add entry(1m)

NAME

       add entry - Adds a name service entry to the name service database

SYNOPSIS

       rpccp add entry	entry-name [-s syntax]

OPTIONS

       Indicates  the  name  syntax of the entry name (optional). The only value for this option is the dce name syntax, which is the default name
       syntax. Until an alternative name syntax becomes available, specifying the -s option is unnecessary.

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the name of the target name service entry.  For an entry in the local cell, you can omit the cell name and specify only the cell-
       relative name.

DESCRIPTION

       The add entry command adds an unspecialized entry to the name service database.	The name of the entry is required.

       The  new  entry	initially  contains no NSI attributes.	This command creates a general name service entry for an application or user.  The
       application or user can later use the export, add element, and add member commands to make the generic entry into a server entry, a  group,
       or  a  profile  (or a combination), as follows: For a server entry, specify the new entry as the target entry for the rpccp export command.
       For a group, specify the new entry as the target group for the rpccp add member command.  For a profile, specify the new entry as the  tar-
       get profile for the rpccp add element command.

       The  add  entry	command  enables  administrators  to add entries for users who lack the required permissions.  If you have the permissions
       required by the add entry command, you can also add an entry using an export, add member, or add element command; if the entry you  specify
       does not exist, the command creates the entry.

   Privilege Required
       To  add	an entry, you need insert permission to the parent directory and both read permission and write permission to the CDS object entry
       (the target name service entry).

NOTE

       This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

EXAMPLES

       The following commands start RPCCP and add an  unspecialized  entry  to	the  name  service  database:  $  rpccp  rpccp>  add  entry     >
       /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_2  The  following command operates from the system prompt to add an unspecialized entry to the name service data-
       base: $ rpccp add entry	 > /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_3
