netutil Command--Start Net Management Utility
The netutil command invokes the Net Management Utility, a forms-based program for configuring Ingres Net. This command allows any number of Ingres sites to be connected together in a single network.
The Net Management Utility allows you to store and manage the information—connection data and remote user authorizations—needed by the Communications Server and Bridge Server to connect to remote installations.
The netutil command has the following format:
netutil [-u user] [-vnode vnode] [-file filename{,filename}]
-u user
Specifies the effective user name for the session. When creating private connection information, the information will be stored for the specified user.
-vnode vnode
Invokes netutil on the specified remote node. The vnode must have been configured previously through either the netutil or ingnet utility and requires OS authentication of the user on the remote host. All connection information will be stored on the remote node.
-file filename{,filename}
Operates netutil non-interactively. All statements in the specified control file are executed.
When the input file name is specified as - (a single dash character), input is taken from the standard input channel. This allows the user to enter commands directly from the keyboard.
