NAME
       file-pr - files incoming	problem	reports	in GNATS database

SYNOPSIS
       file-pr [ -f file | --file=file ] [ -h |	--help ]
       [ -V | --version	] [ -H host | --host=host ]
       [ -P port | --port=port ] [ -v user | --user=user ]
       [ -w password | --passwd=password ]
       [ -d databasename | --database=databasename ]

DESCRIPTION
       file-pr files incoming Problem Reports in the GNATS database, sends ac-
       knowledgments to	approriate parties and logs database activity.

       file-pr	assigns	 the  Problem Report an	identification number and then
       files it	in the GNATS database either under the category	 specified  in
       the Category field of the PR, or	under the default category if the Cat-
       egory field is nonexistent or contains an invalid category name.

       For  the	 default  GNATS	configuration, the person responsible for that
       category	and the	person responsible for the submitter site where	the PR
       originated receive a copy of the	PR in its entirety.   Optionally,  the
       originator of the PR receives an	acknowledgment that the	PR arrived and
       was filed

OPTIONS
       -f file,	--filename=file
	      Accept  file  as	input; if this option is not present, standard
	      input is used.

       -h, --help
	      Display usage summary for	file-pr.

       -V, --version
	      Display version number for file-pr.

       -d, --database
	      Specifies	the database to	which the PR is	to be  submitted.   If
	      no database is specified,	the database named default is assumed.
	      This  option overrides the database specified in the GNATSDB en-
	      vironment	variable.

   GNATS network options:
       -H, --host
	      Hostname of the GNATS server.

       -P, --port
	      The port that the	GNATS server runs on.

       -v, --username
	      Username used to log into	the GNATS server.

       -w, --passwd
	      Password used to log into	the GNATS server.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       The GNATSDB environment variable	is used	to determine which database to
       use.  For a local database, it contains the name	of the database	to ac-
       cess.

       For network access via gnatsd, it contains a  colon-separated  list  of
       strings that describe the remote	database, in the form

       server:port:databasename:username:password

       Any  of	the fields may be omitted, but at least	one colon must appear;
       otherwise, the value is assumed to be the name of a local database.

       If GNATSDB is not set, it is assumed that the  database	is  local  and
       that its	name is	default.
