NAME

6       nisls - list the contents of a NIS+ directory
7

SYNOPSIS

9       nisls [-dglLmMR] [name]...
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       For each name that is a NIS+ directory, nisls lists the contents of the
14       directory. For each name that is a NIS+ object other than a  directory,
15       nisls  simply echos the name. If no name is specified, the first direc‐
16       tory in the search path is listed. See nisdefaults(1).

OPTIONS

19       The following options are supported:
20
21       -d    Treat  NIS+ directories like  other  NIS+  objects,  rather  than
22             listing their contents.
23
24
25       -g    Display group owner instead of owner when listing in long format.
26
27
28       -l    List  in long format. This option displays additional information
29             about the objects such as their type, creation time,  owner,  and
30             access rights.
31
32             The access rights are listed in the following order in long mode:
33             nobody, owner, group owner, and world.
34
35
36       -L    This option specifies that links are  to  be  followed.  If  name
37             actually points to a link, it is followed to the linked object.
38
39
40       -m    Display  modification  time instead of creation time when listing
41             in long format.
42
43
44       -M    Master only. This specifies that information is  to  be  returned
45             from  the master server of the named object. This guarantees that
46             the most up to date information is seen at the  possible  expense
47             that the master server may be busy.
48
49
50       -R    List directories recursively. This option will reiterate the list
51             for each subdirectory found in the process of listing each name.
52
53

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

55       NIS_PATH    If this variable is set, and the NIS+  name  is  not  fully
56                   qualified,  each directory specified will be searched until
57                   the object is found. See nisdefaults(1).

NOTES

86       NIS+ might not be supported in future releases of the Solaris operating
87       system. Tools to aid the migration from NIS+ to LDAP are  available  in
88       the    current   Solaris   release.   For   more   information,   visit
