Environment
Novell NetWare 6.5 Support Pack 8
Situation
To get a listing of nss parameters, one can run nss /help and scan through the multiple pages of items. If you are looking for a particular option, it is easy to pass it by amongst the many pages of options.
Resolution
A /find option has been added to NSS. If you know part of the option name, you can perform a wild card search on it. For example, you know "image" is somewhere in the parameter, then you can use the /find option to locate all of the nss options that have "image" in the name by running the following:
nss /find=*image*
this will return information similar to:
/MountImageVolume= Mount the specified CDDVD image file (full path) as a
CDDVD volume.This image file has to be stored on NSS
volume. Any activity on this file will cause the
special CDDVD volume to be dismounted
/RemoveImageVolume= Dismount and remove CDDVD volume mounted on the
specified CD/DVD image file (full path). This image
file has to be stored on NSS volume.
nss /find=*image*
this will return information similar to:
/MountImageVolume= Mount the specified CDDVD image file (full path) as a
CDDVD volume.This image file has to be stored on NSS
volume. Any activity on this file will cause the
special CDDVD volume to be dismounted
/RemoveImageVolume= Dismount and remove CDDVD volume mounted on the
specified CD/DVD image file (full path). This image
file has to be stored on NSS volume.
