NAME
       dceping - test the ability to contact DCE services from a local DCE client.

SYNOPSIS
       dceping [-n number] [-s time] [-v] [-C] [service_name ...]  required to specify the literal strings, NAMESPACE or STRING_BINDING (see nond-
       cesvc(4)).

OPTIONS
       -n number Specify the number of pinging cycles. Each service is tested once per cycle. The default is one pinging cycle.  Specifying  -n  0
		 makes pinging continuous.

       -s time	 Specify  time,  in  seconds,  to  wait between pinging cycles. You must specify more than one pinging cycle with the -n option in
		 order to use -s.

       -v	 Run in verbose mode.

       -C	 Ping only core DCE services. This option is ineffective if a service_name is specified on the command line.

DESCRIPTION
       dceping verifies that a local DCE client can communicate with DCE and other services.  It uses the RPC management interface to determine if
       the DCE service is listening.  The core DCE services that dceping checks include secd, cdsd, gdad, rpcd, cdsadv, dtsd, and sec_clientd.

       You  can  ping  other DCE and non-DCE services by naming them in the file, /opt/dcelocal/hpadmin/etc/nondcesvc. If you want to determine at
       run time what services you want dceping to ping, you may do so using the same file.  See the manpage, nondcesvc(4), for more information.

       You may specify the services to ping on the command line separated by blanks. In this case, dceping does not ping any DCE core services	or
       the  services  listed  in  /opt/dcelocal/hpadmin/etc/nondcesvc. The service_name specified could be either a name in the DCE Cell Directory
       Service Namespace or an RPC string binding. It is not
