ofmipname(8)		    System Manager's Manual		  ofmipname(8)

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 con-
       verts 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:ad-
       dress: (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:
