DESCRIPTION
ypmatch prints out the values of one or more keys from the NIS database specified by
mapname, which may be a map name or a map nickname.
The options are as follows:
-
-d domainname
-
Specify a domain other than the default domain.
-
-k
-
Print the map key followed by a colon, before printing key value. This option is useful with maps in which the values are null or the key is not part of the value.
-
-t
-
Inhibit translation of map nicknames to their corresponding map names.
-
-x
-
Display the map nickname table, found in /var/yp/nicknames. A built-in default translation table is used if /var/yp/nicknames does not exist (see nicknames(5) for details).
-
-z
-
Append a NUL character at the end of the key when doing the lookup. This is useful for mail.aliases maps, which include a trailing NUL in the keys.
