NAME

       inetconv - convert inetd.conf entries into smf service manifests, import them into smf repository

SYNOPSIS

       inetconv -?

       inetconv [-f] [-n] [-i srcfile] [-o destdir]

       inetconv -e [-n] [-i srcfile]

DESCRIPTION

       The  inetconv  utility  converts  a file containing records of inetd.conf(4) into smf(5) service manifests, and then import those manifests
       into the smf repository. Once the inetd.conf file has been converted, the only way to change aspects of an  inet  service  is  to  use  the
       inetadm(1M) utility.

       There  is  a  one-to-one  correspondence between a service line in the input file and the manifest generated. By default, the manifests are
       named using the following template:

       <svcname>-<proto>.xml

       The <svcname> token is replaced by the service's name and the <proto> token by the service's protocol. Any slash (/) characters that  exist
       in the source line for the service name or protocol are replaced with underscores (_).

       The service line is recorded as a property of the converted service.

       During  the conversion process, if a service line is found to be malformed or to be for an internal inetd service, no manifest is generated
       and that service line is skipped.

       The input file is left untouched by the conversion process.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -?

	   Display a usage message.

       -e

	   Enable smf services which are listed in the input file.

       -f

	   If a service manifest of the same name as the one to be generated is found in the destination directory, inetconv will  overwrite  that
	   manifest if this option is specified. Otherwise, an error message is generated and the conversion of that service is not performed.

       -i srcfile

	   Permits  the  specification of an alternate input file srcfile. If this option is not specified, then the inetd.conf(4) file is used as
	   input.

       -n

	   Turns off the auto-import of the manifests generated during the conversion process. Later, if you want to import a  generated  manifest
	   into the smf(5) repository, you can do so through the use of the svccfg(1M) utility.

	   If the -e option is specified, the -n option only displays the smf services that would be enabled.

       -o

	   Permits  the  specification of an alternate destination directory destdir for the generated manifests. If this option is not specified,
	   then the manifests are placed in /var/svc/manifest/network/rpc, if the service is a RPC service,  or  /var/svc/manifest/network  other-
	   wise.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Generating smf Manifests from inetd.conf

       The  following  command generates smf(5) manifests from inetd.conf(4) and places them in /var/tmp, overwriting any preexisting manifests of
       the same name, and then imports them into the smf repository.

       # inetconv -f -o /var/tmp
       100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
       Importing 100232_10-rpc_udp.xml ...Done
       telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml
       Importing telnet-tcp6.xml ...Done

       Example 2: Generating Manifests from an Alternate Input File

       The following command specifies a different input file and does not load the resulting manifests into the smf repository.

       # inetconv -n -i /export/test/inet.svcs -o /var/tmp
       100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
       telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0

	   Operation completed successfully (no errors).

       1

	   Invalid options specified.

       2

	   One or more service lines are malformed, and thus no manifest(s) were generated for them.

       3

	   An error occurred importing one or more of the generated manifests.

       4

	   A system error occurred.

FILES

       /var/svc/manifest/network/{rpc}/<svcname>-<proto>.xml

	   default output manifest file name
