7

SYNOPSIS

9       nisrm [-if] name...
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The nisrm command removes NIS+ objects named name from the  NIS+ names‐
14       pace.
15
16
17       This command will fail if the NIS+ master server is not running.
18
19
20       This command will not remove directories. See nisrmdir(1). Nor will  it
21       remove non-empty tables. See nistbladm(1).
22

OPTIONS

24       The following options are supported:
25
26       -i    Interactive  mode.  Like the system  rm(1) command the nisrm com‐
27             mand will ask for confirmation prior to removing  an  object.  If
28             the  name  specified  by  name is a non-fully qualified name this
29             option is forced on. This  prevents  the  removal  of  unexpected
30             objects.
31
32
33       -f    Force.  The  removal is attempted, and if it fails for permission
34             reasons, a  nischmod(1) is attempted and the removal retried.  If
35             the command fails, it fails silently.
