NAME
      nisls - list the contents of a NIS+ directory
 


SYNOPSIS
      nisls [ -dglLmMR ]  [ name ... ]
 


DESCRIPTION
      For each name that is a NIS+ directory, nisls lists the con-
      tents  of the directory. For each name that is a NIS+ object
      other than a directory, nisls simply echos the name.  If  no
      name  is  specified,  the first directory in the search path
      (see nisdefaults(1)) is listed.
 


OPTIONS
      The following options are supported:
 
      -d    Treat   NIS+  directories  like  other  NIS+  objects,
            rather than listing their contents.
 
      -g    Display group owner instead of owner when  listing  in
            long format.
 
      -l    List in long format. This option  displays  additional
            information  about  the  objects  such  as their type,
            creation time, owner, and access rights.
 
            The access rights are listed in the following order in
            long mode: nobody, owner, group owner, and world.
 
      -L    This option specifies that links are to  be  followed.
            If  name  actually points to a link, it is followed to
            the linked object.
 
      -m    Display modification time  instead  of  creation  time
            when listing in long format.
 
      -M    Master only. This specifies that information is to  be
            returned  from  the master server of the named object.
            This guarantees that the most up to  date  information
            is seen at the possible expense that the master server
            may be busy.
 
      -R    List  directories  recursively.   This   option   will
            reiterate  the list for each subdirectory found in the
            process of listing each name.
 
 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
      NIS_PATH
            If this variable is set, and  the  NIS+  name  is  not
            fully  qualified,  each  directory  specified  will be
            searched  until  the  object  is  found  (see   nisde-
            faults(1)).
