NAME
     ofmipname - build a name-address database for ofmipd

SYNTAX
     ofmipname name.cdb name.tmp

DESCRIPTION
     ofmipname	reads a name-address table from its standard input.  It converts
     the table into a database suited for quick access by ofmipd.

     ofmipname writes the database  to	name.tmp;  it  then  moves  name.tmp  to
     name.cdb.	name.tmp and name.cdb must be on the same filesystem.

     If  there	is  a  problem creating name.tmp, ofmipname complains and leaves
     name.cdb alone.

     The database format is portable across machines.

INPUT FORMAT
     The name-address table is a series of lines of the  form  key:name:address:
     (including  the  final  colon).   If  ofmipd  is  given key (after hostname
     rewriting) as the return path for a message, it  will  replace  the  return
     path  with  address,  eliminate any existing From field in the message, and
     insert a new From field showing name and address.

     ofmipname ignores any line beginning with #.

     For example:

	# From: "Joe Shmoe" <J.Shmoe@sun.af.mil>
	joe@sun.af.mil:Joe Shmoe:J.Shmoe@sun.af.mil:
