Synopsis
NetInfo is NeXT’s
implementation of a network-based information service. It has also
been adopted by the Darwin and Mac OS X operating systems. The
netinfo
type expects a database-map
declaration to be of the following form:
Kname netinfo database-map
The database-map
name defaults to
/aliases.
The netinfo
type uses only a handful of database
switches, as shown in Table 23-18.
