NAME

       nidump - extract text or flat-file-format data from NetInfo

SYNOPSIS

       nidump [ -t ] { -r directory | format } domain

DESCRIPTION

       nidump  reads  the  specified  NetInfo domain and dumps a portion of its contents to standard output.  When a flat-file administration file
       format is specified, nidump provides output using the syntax of the corresponding flat file.  The allowed values for  format  are  aliases,
       bootparams, bootptab, exports, fstab, group, hosts, networks, passwd, printcap, protocols, rpc, and services.

       If  the	-r option is used, the first argument is interpreted as a NetInfo directory path, and its contents are dumped in a generic NetInfo
       format.

OPTIONS

       -t     Interpret the domain as a tagged domain.	For example, "trotter/network" refers to the database  tagged  "network"  on  the  machine
	      "trotter".  The machine name can be an actual name or an IP address.

       -r     Dump  the  specified  directory  in  "raw" format.  Directories are delimited by curly braces, and properties within a directory are
	      listed in the form "property = value;".  Parentheses introduce a comma-separated list of items. The special property  name  CHILDREN
	      is  used	to  hold  a  directory's children, if any are present.	Spacing and line breaks are significant only within double quotes,
	      which may be used to protect any names that might contain metacharacters.

EXAMPLES

       "nidump hosts ." dumps a hosts file from the local NetInfo domain.

       "nidump -r /locations /" dumps the /locations directory of the root domain.

       "nidump -t -r /name=users/uid=530 trotter/network" dumps the directory for the user whose UID is 530.
