NAME

6       getname - command-line test program for the val_getnameinfo() function
7

SYNOPSIS

9          getname [options] address
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This utility is a command-line wrapper around the val_getnameinfo()
13       function.  It invokes the val_getnameinfo() function with the given
14       command-line arguments and displays the returned host and service
15       information for the given node name, with a validation status value.
16
17       The exit status for this program is 1 if the answer received is
18       trusted, 2 if the answer received is validated, and -1 for an error.
19       The program returns 0 if no validation was performed or if the result
20       was neither trusted nor validated.  The trusted and validated status
21       values are obtained using the val_istrusted() and val_isvalidated()
22       functions from libval(3).
