NAME

       nbp, nbplkup, nbprgstr, nbpunrgstr - access NBP database

SYNOPSIS

       nbplkup  [-r maxresponses] [-A address] [-m maccodepage] [nbpname]

       nbprgstr  [-A address] [-p port] [-m maccodepage] [nbpname]

       nbpunrgstr  [-A address] [-m maccodepage] [nbpname]

DESCRIPTION

       nbprgstr registers nbpname with atalkd(8), at the given port.  nbpunrgstr informs atalkd that nbpname is
       no longer to be advertised.

       nbplkup displays up to maxresponses (default 1000) entities registered on the AppleTalk internet.
       nbpname is parsed by nbp_name(3). An `=' for the object or type matches anything, and an `*' for zone
       means the local zone. The default values are taken from the NBPLKUP environment variable, parsed as an
       nbpname.
