NAME

       netdb - Access the local network databases.
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The netdb command provides access to network information that is stored in configuration files, the Network Information Service (NIS) or in
       the Domain Name System (DNS). The results of the netdb command usually depend on the local configuration of your operating system.

NETDB COMMAND

       netdb hosts
       netdb hosts name address
       netdb hosts address name
	      The first version of the netdb hosts command returns a list of all locally known hosts. Each element of this list  contains  a  host
	      name  and  its IP address. The result is an empty list on many systems that are configured to use the DNS for hostname lookups.  The
	      second version of the netdb hosts command converts an IP address into a host name and the third version of the netdb  hosts  command
	      converts a host name into an IP address.

       netdb networks
       netdb networks name address
       netdb networks address name
	      The  first  version of the netdb networks command returns a list of all locally known networks. Each element of this list contains a
	      network name and the IP network address. The second version of the netdb networks command returns the network name that  belongs	to
	      the  IP network address and the third version of the netdb networks command returns the network address that belongs to a given net-
	      work name.

       netdb protocols
       netdb protocols name number
       netdb protocols number name
	      The first version of the netdb protocols command returns a list of all locally known Internet protocols. Each element of	this  list
	      contains	a  protocol name and its protocol number. The second version of the netdb protocols command returns the protocol name that
	      belongs to number and the third version of the netdb protocols command returns the protocol number that belongs to a protocol name.

       netdb services
       netdb services name number protocol
       netdb services number name protocol
	      The first version of the netdb services command returns the list of all locally known services. Each element of this list contains a
	      service  name,  the  service number and the transport protocol. The second version of the netdb services command returns the service
	      name for the service described by number and protocol. The third version of the netdb services command returns the  protocol  number
	      for the service described by name and protocol.

       netdb sunrpcs
       netdb sunrpcs name number
       netdb sunrpcs number name
	      The  first  version of the netdb sunrpcs command lists all locally known Sun RPCs. Each element of this list contains a RPC name and
	      its registration number. The second version of the netdb sunrpcs command returns the RPC name for a given RPC number and	the  third
	      version of the netdb sunrpcs command returns the RPC number for a given RPC name.

       netdb ip class address
       netdb ip range address mask
	      The  first version of the netdb ip command returns the IP class of the given address. The following classes are recognized: A, B, C,
	      D and loopback. The second version of the netdb ip command returns the list of IP addresses in the address range	given  by  address
