DESCRIPTION

24       The  nfsconf command can be used to test for and retrieve configuration
25       settings from a range of nfs-utils configuration files.
26
27   Modes
28       The following modes are available:
29
30       -d, --dump
31              Output an alphabetically sorted dump of the  current  configura‐
32              tion  in conf file format. Accepts an optional filename in which
33              to write the output.
34
35       -i, --isset
36              Test if a specific tag has a value set.
37
38       -g, --get
39              Output the current value of the specified tag.
40
41       -s, --set
42              Update or Add a tag and value to the config file,  creating  the
43              file if necessary.

OPTIONS

49   Options valid in all modes
50       -v, --verbose
51              Increase verbosity and print debugging information.
52
53       -f, --file infile
54              Select  a  different  config  file  to  operate upon, default is
55              /etc/nfs.conf
56

58       -a, --arg subsection
59              Select a specific sub-section

EXIT STATUS

62   --isset mode
63       In this mode the command will return success (0) if  the  selected  tag
64       has  a  value,  any  other exit code indicates the value is not set, or
65       some other error has occurred.
66
67   all other modes
68       Success is indicated by an exit status of zero, any other status  indi‐
69       cates  an  error.  Error  messages are output on stderr, and increasing
70       verbosity will give more detailed explanations if any are available.

EXAMPLES

73       nfsconf -v --dump --file /tmp/testconf.conf sorted.conf
74              Check a new config file for syntax errors and  output  a  sorted
75              version for ease of comparison with existing settings.
76
77       if  !  nfsconf  --isset  gssd preferred-realm ; then echo 'No preferred
78       realm configured for gss'; fi
79              The tool allows for easy testing of  configuration  values  from
80              shell scripts, here we test if a specific value has been set.
81
82       nfsconf  --file  /etc/nfsmount.conf  --get --arg /home MountPoint back‐
83       ground
84              Show default value for background option for NFS mounts  of  the
85              /home path.
