aliasadm

aliasadm(1M)						  System Administration Commands					      aliasadm(1M)

NAME

       aliasadm - manipulate the NIS+ aliases map

SYNOPSIS

       aliasadm -a alias expansion [options comments] optional flags

       aliasadm -c alias expansion [ options comments] [ optional flags]

       aliasadm -d alias [ optional flags]

       aliasadm -e alias [ optional flags]

       aliasadm -l alias [ optional flags]

       aliasadm -m alias [ optional flags]

       aliasadm [-I] [-D domainname] [-f filename] [-M mapname]

DESCRIPTION

       aliasadm makes changes to the alias map.

       The alias map is an NIS+ table object with four columns:

       alias	       The name of the alias as a null terminated string.

       expansion       The value of the alias as it would appear in a sendmail /etc/aliases file.

       options	       A  list	of options applicable to this alias.  The only option currently supported is  CANON. With this option, if the user
		       has requested an inverse alias lookup, and there is more than one alias with this expansion, this alias	is  given  prefer-
		       ence.

       comments        An  arbitrary  string  containing comments about this alias. The sendmail(1M) command reads this map in addition to the NIS
		       aliases map and the local  /etc/aliases database.

OPTIONS

       -a	       Add an alias.

       -c	       Change an alias.

       -d	       Delete an alias.

       -e	       Edit the alias map.

       -I	       Initialize the NIS+ aliases database.

       -l	       List the alias map.

       -m	       Print or match an alias.

       -D domainname   Edit the map in domain  domainname instead of the current domain.

       -f filename     When editing or listing the database, use filename instead of invoking the editor.

       -M mapname      Edit mapname instead of mail_aliases.

FILES

       /etc/aliases    mail aliases for the local host in ASCII format
