NAME
       dncopynodes - copy a list of nodes from a remote DEC system

SYNOPSIS
       dncopynodes <nodename> [ldif-dn]

DESCRIPTION
       This  program  will  generate a decnet.conf file by contacting a remote
       DECnet host (running VMS or RSX-11 probably) and doing  the  equivalent
       of  "NCP	 COPY  KNOWN NODES". The resulting file can be copied over the
       existing decnet.conf file if you like.
       You do need a fully-functioning DECnet system before using this command
       but  you	 don't	need any nodes other than the executor defined in dec‐
       net.conf.  dncopynodes will copy the executor information already there
       into the new file.
       The program copies its output to standard output. It is strongly recom‐
       mended that you review it before replacing an existing /etc/decnet.conf
       file.
       The  node  name	can also be a node address if you don't have any nodes
       defined in your existing decnet.conf.
       DO NOT attempt to redirect the  output  of  dncopynodes	directly  into
       /etc/decnet.conf.  It will fail and destroy your existing configuration
       file! Send it to a temporary file and then copy it (see EXAMPLES)
       dncopynodes can also create an LDIF file suitable for importing into an
       LDAP  database.	With  dnprogs 2.48 or later, DECnet programs can quiry
       this for node address information.

EXAMPLE
       # dncopynodes 3.34 > /tmp/decnet.conf
       # dncopynodes 3.34 dc=example,dc=com > /tmp/decnet.ldif
       # mv /tmp/decnet.conf /etc
