INETCONV(1M)							  INETCONV(1M)

NAME
       inetconv	 -  convert  inetd.conf	 entries  into	smf service manifests,
       import them into smf repository

SYNOPSIS
       inetconv -?

       inetconv [-f] [-n] [-i srcfile] [-o destdir]

       inetconv -e [-n] [-i srcfile]

DESCRIPTION
       The  inetconv  utility  converts	  a   file   containing	  records   of
       inetd.conf(4) into smf(5) service manifests, and then import those man‐
       ifests into the smf repository. Once the inetd.conf file has been  con‐
       verted, the only way to change aspects of an inet service is to use the
       inetadm(1M) utility.

       There is a one-to-one correspondence between  a	service	 line  in  the
       input  file  and	 the manifest generated. By default, the manifests are
       named using the following template:

	 <svcname>-<proto>.xml

       The <svcname> token is replaced by the service's name and  the  <proto>
       token by the service's protocol. Any slash (/) characters that exist in
       the source line for the service name  or	 protocol  are	replaced  with
       underscores (_).

       The service line is recorded as a property of the converted service.

       During  the  conversion	process, if a service line is found to be mal‐
       formed or to be for an internal inetd service, no manifest is generated
       and that service line is skipped.

       The input file is left untouched by the conversion process.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -?
		     Display a usage message.

       -e
		     Enable smf services which are listed in the input file.

       -f
		     If	 a  service manifest of the same name as the one to be
		     generated is found in the destination directory, inetconv
		     will overwrite that manifest if this option is specified.
		     Otherwise, an error message is generated and the  conver‐
		     sion of that service is not performed.

       -i srcfile
		     Permits the specification of an alternate input file src‐
		     file.  If	this  option  is  not  specified,   then   the
		     inetd.conf(4) file is used as input.

       -n
		     Turns off the auto-import of the manifests generated dur‐
		     ing the conversion process. Later, if you want to	import
		     a	generated manifest into the smf(5) repository, you can
		     do so through the use of the svccfg(1M) utility.

		     If the -e option is specified, the -n  option  only  dis‐
		     plays the smf services that would be enabled.

       -o
		     Permits  the  specification  of  an alternate destination
		     directory destdir for the generated  manifests.  If  this
		     option is not specified, then the manifests are placed in
		     /var/svc/manifest/network/rpc, if the service  is	a  RPC
		     service, or /var/svc/manifest/network otherwise.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1 Generating smf Manifests from inetd.conf

       The following command generates smf(5) manifests from inetd.conf(4) and
       places them in /var/tmp, overwriting any preexisting manifests  of  the
       same name, and then imports them into the smf repository.

	 # inetconv -f -o /var/tmp
	 100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
	 Importing 100232_10-rpc_udp.xml ...Done
	 telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml
	 Importing telnet-tcp6.xml ...Done

       Example 2 Generating Manifests from an Alternate Input File

       The  following  command	specifies  a different input file and does not
       load the resulting manifests into the smf repository.

	 # inetconv -n -i /export/test/inet.svcs -o /var/tmp
	 100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
	 telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0
	    Operation completed successfully (no errors).

       1
	    Invalid options specified.

       2
	    One or more service lines are malformed, and thus  no  manifest(s)
	    were generated for them.

       3
	    An	error  occurred	 importing  one or more of the generated mani‐
	    fests.

       4
	    A system error occurred.

FILES
       /var/svc/manifest/network/{rpc}/<svcname>-<proto>.xml

	   default output manifest file name
