NAME
      rpc.nisd_resolv, nisd_resolv - NIS+ service daemon
 


SYNOPSIS
      rpc.nisd_resolv [ -v | -V ]  [  -F  [ -C fd ]  ]  [ -t xx  ]
      [ -p yy ]
 


DESCRIPTION
      rpc.nisd_resolv is an auxiliary process which  provides  DNS
      forwarding service for NIS hosts requests to both ypserv and
      rpc.nisd that are running in the NIS compatibility mode.  It
      is  generally  started by invoking  rpc.nisd(1M) with the -B
      option or ypserv(1M) with the -d option. Although it is  not
      recommended,  rpc.nisd_resolv  can  also be started indepen-
      dently with the following options.
 


OPTIONS
      -F    Run in foreground.
 
      -C fd Use  fd for service xprt (from nisd).
 
      -v    Verbose. Send output to the syslog daemon.
 
      -V    Verbose. Send output to stdout.
 
      -t xx Use transport  xx.
 
      -p yy Use transient program#  yy.

NOTES
      This command requires  that  the  /etc/resolv.conf  file  be
      setup  for communication with a DNS nameserver. The nslookup
      utility can be used  to  verify  communication  with  a  DNS
      nameserver.  See resolv.conf(4) and nslookup(1M).
